Iran is on fire.
The leftists and their media don't care that the Islamic regime is shooting the people of Iran.

There is no way to blame Israel
I love the resilience of Iranians. The mad Ayatollahs are as bad as Kim Jong Un. Khamanei is a divine ruler ,a state that most Iranians applauded when Khomeini returned from exile in France. Then he methodically proceeded to murder every opponent and change the Persian name to the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Persians still have that fight in their bones despite severe repression.
I hope that mad Ayatollah flees to Russia yesterday.
Iran would be a very rich country if they got rid of Sharia . Despite the repression,the female population makes upto 49% of university enrollment.
I wish them well. I hope this time they prevail. With Trump threatening them ,I'm certain he will do like Israelis did. Bomb the Basij and IRGC headquarters , if they continue murdering their own citizens .

Earned qualifications to vote is a bad idea

Every adult citizen has his own concerns about their life and your own concern is not more legit that mine nor should take precedence. That is do not have enough assets as you should not mean I wont have a say in how my life is run.
Its a very slippery slope as how do we determine a criteria. Is it just any house or a house worth certain amount .
Since we are all moving to a stage where AI will be more clever than human,maybe we can have AI just predicting , analyzing ,mining and select the best candidate.Give AI tools the full datasets and it comes up with the next president.
Hahaha

Same thing with the silly ban on corporate purchases of single family homes.

Republicans and the Conservative Party have a serious problem though because they're trying to compete with Democrats and Liberals in GIVING AWAY GOODIES, SUBSIDIES & WELFARE to voters. Most voters are ill informed, susceptible to emotive appeals and just plain greedy and envious of the rich. So in a way the Republicans they're just doing what they have to do to win votes.

Ronald Reagan gave amnesty to illegal immigrants in 1986, this established a precedent that underlies the current immigration crisis.

George Bush the 2nd started the Medicare program that pays for drugs, called Medicare Part D. This has now DIRECTLY led to a MAJOR CRISIS in the retail pharmacy industry....Walgreens and Rite Aid went BANKRUPT and CVS is also in crisis mode, small pharmacy chains and independents are closing down all over the place.

Democrats did their own too. In 1999 President Clinton implemented regulations that LOWERED credit score qualifications for mortgage loans and the EXPLICIT reason was to increase home ownership among Black Americans. At the time when Bill Clinton imposed his regulations, Black home ownership was already rising at the FASTEST PACE in the history of the USA. The ACTUAL RESULT those regulations was the 2008 Financial Crisis and now Black Home ownership TODAY is lower than it was in 2006. READ THAT AGAIN and think about it.

All democracies should adopt a republican ethos - meaning there should be EARNED QUALIFICATIONS to be able to vote. Voters should own property, pay INCOME taxes under a FLAT RATE system and serve in the military OR police if they can meet the physical standards. Pure or simple majority rule democracy is unfair because HIGH PRODUCING, INTELLIGENT OR SUCCESSFUL people are always a MINORITY and the majority poorer AND low IQ people will always vote to increase taxes on those wealthy people.

Larry Page of Google, Elon Musk of Tesla and Peter Thiel of Palantir have moved out of California BECAUSE of a threatened tax on billionaires. Now get this.....the top 1% of income earners in California pay 40% of the state taxes...nationally the top 1% pay 25% of federal taxes. And California Democrats are still not satisfied, the State Service Employees Union is leading a Referendum Project to impose a WEALTH TAX on billionaires. The excuse is INEQUALITY, but the average USA citizen has among the richest and highest HDI in the world. So tax USA citizens and redistribute to the world?

Anyway most people with socialist, liberal or progressive outlook....the vast majority of them...are just dumb, unintelligent, envious, greedy and lazy. The few intelligent liberals always use the dumb ones as cannon fodder to loot the system. Like Bernie Sanders is a multimillionare who has never had a private sector job, always living off TAXES as a government official. He gets elected by inciting DUMB & LOW IQ people to vote for him, it's that simple.

At least Donald Trump made his own money or comes from a family that made money by risk and hard work. The man doesn't even take a salary to serve as President. That's exactly why he's eventually going to prison, the dumb hordes are going to get him.

It's a pity we have a system of EQUAL VOTES without EQUAL CONTRIBUTIONS.

Good Luck to Nigerians.
Earned qualification to vote is a hard sell.Democrats want the most flawed process.
I'll give an example. In a former workplace at an ISP ,we used to accept cash from clients. The Accounts receivables always had plenty of hard cash in their office. The bosses were happy because they would always get cash from the cashier and give a postdated cheque when they were broke. Employees would easily get cash from the office to be deducted from the salary whenever they needed it.All that stopped when clients had to deposit direct to bank or write checks No cash. The change wasn't pleasant at all,people now had to start learning how to manage their money.

Democrats want as many loopholes as possible .They can slot in illegals with no voter ID, voter registration vouching, mail in ballots , ballot Drop boxes ,voting machines , DMV vote registration , vulnerable vote tallying machines. Anything that can be exploited.

I am trying to understand how you use fiat to force down the credit card interest rate. Like you said, Same thing with student loan forgiveness

All these end up discouraging private sector investment and the govt will have to shoulder the burden, but because they need to appeal to th voters sentiments, they become a giveaway govt. I will give this , I will give that without caring where its coming from

Nothing is free, anything free I give you, is coming from somewhere/someone else or its debt

When they do all these giveaway and the Math is not catching up, they start increasing taxes
There is a legal loophole used by countries to cap interest rates.
Pass a law that interest rates should not exceed say 2% of the monthly moving inflation rates
It's been done .by these countries
South Africa
France
Morocco
Nepal
Bolivia
Chile
Paraguay
Zambia (historically, repealed)
Kenya (historically, repealed)
Benin
Burkina Faso
Côte d'Ivoire
Mali
Niger
Senegal
Togo
Cameroon
Central African Republic
Chad
Republic of Congo
Gabon
Equatorial Guinea

That's different from capping rents.
Some countries also have a cap on the amount of interest one can pay back on a loan eg repayment should be no more than 100% of borrowed amounts.

Interesting perspective.

https://x.com/miles_commodore/status/2009688548866212005

Breakdown of the black family.
The responses are eye opening.
While the main tweet is about black family ,I've asked Grok to calculate how much benefits a single mother of 3 with zero income she would get equivalent to a full time working person wages.

In 2026, a single mother of three (household of 4) with zero income is eligible for a combination of cash, food, housing, and healthcare assistance. The total value of these benefits, when converted to a gross hourly wage based on a standard 40-hour workweek (160 hours per month), represents the income she would need to earn to match the purchasing power of these tax-free government supports.
 California (CalWORKs and Medi-Cal) In California, the maximum monthly benefits include approximately $1,130 from CalWORKs, $994 from SNAP (CalFresh), and $150 from WIC. When adding the market value of Section 8 housing (approx. $3,500 for a 3-bedroom) and Medi-Cal health coverage (approx. $2,800), the total monthly value reaches approximately $8,574. 
The equivalent hourly wage is calculated as:\(\frac{\$8,574}{160}=\$53.59\)In high-cost urban areas,
This equivalent pay can exceed $53.59 per hour.

 New York (TANF and Medicaid) New York provides approximately $952 in TANF cash assistance, $994 in SNAP, and $150 in WIC. Including the average market value for a 3-bedroom housing voucher (approx. $3,200) and Medicaid health insurance (approx. $2,700), the total estimated monthly benefit value is $7,996. 
The equivalent hourly wage is calculated as:\(\frac{\$7,996}{160}=\$49.98\)
This results in an equivalent pay of approximately $49.98 per hour. 

Massachusetts (TAFDC and MassHealth
Massachusetts offers approximately $900 in TAFDC cash aid, $994 in SNAP, and $150 in WIC. Factoring in the high value of state housing vouchers (approx. $3,000) and MassHealth coverage (approx. $2,600), the total monthly value is approximately $7,644. 
The equivalent hourly wage is calculated as:\(\frac{\$7,644}{160}=\$47.78\)
This results in an equivalent pay of approximately $47.78 per hour. 

Calculation Components The equivalent hourly rates above are based on the sum of direct cash/food aid and the market value of non-cash services. These figures represent gross (pre-tax) earnings, as government benefits are typically not subject to income tax. Actual values vary significantly by specific zip code and the availability of housing vouchers, which often have extensive waitlists.

The democrat order to their followers
Trust CNN. CNN International’s “The Brief,” CNN Senior Correspondent Campbell.
"He puts himself in front of that vehicle, and I’ll tell you, law enforcement officers are trained, essentially, not to put yourself in that situation. That’s training that happens from coast to coast in this country. But the moment that she then turns the wheel and begins to drive forward, it appears, from other vantage points, that he was likely struck by that car, and so, under policy, an agent can articulate, I felt my life was in danger, I opened fire. But there are big questions based on the angle where he was, were there other options, could he have jumped out of the way? That’s a big question.”

He added, “Every agent and officer in this country, when they open fire, they’re accountable for every single round, they have to know what’s beyond that target. We’re learning here, in this case, that the agent went to guns, opened fire, shooting towards the direction of those bystanders. Thankfully, no one else was hit


They want blood on the streets. With that kind of questioning,the paid agitators will raise a stink
Keith Ellison will also use the that to investigate, to divert from his criminal referral. Someone also wondered whether the agent should have been recording the confrontation using his now available footage of the encounter.

So difficult living your life looking for which lies to believe. Reene Good was part of a neighborhood ICE watch,with her leading the charge.
Videos posted here, yet someone has no shame saying she was turning her car around. She also hit the agent who shot her.
JD Vance slammed the shameless media.
"You people in the media have been LYING ABOUT THIS ATTACK. She was trying to RAM THIS GUY with her car! He shot back. He's already been serious injured before.

"Everybody repeating the lie this is some innocent woman out for a drive in MN - YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU."

"What that headline leaves out is the fact that that very ICE officer nearly had his life ENDED, DRAGGED by a car six months ago, 33 stitches in his leg, so you THINK maybe he's a little bit SENSTIVE about somebody ramming him with an automobile?!"

"What that headline leaves out is that that woman was there to interfere with a legitimate law enforcement operation in the United States of America."

"What that headline leaves out is that that woman is part of a broader left-wing network to attack, to dox, to assault, and to make it impossible for our ICE officers to do their job."

"If the media wants to tell the truth, they ought to tell the truth that a group of left-wing radicals have been working tirelessly, sometimes using domestic terror techniques, to try to make it impossible for the president of the United States to do what the American people elected him to do, which is enforce our immigration laws."

"You people in the media have been LYING ABOUT THIS ATTACK. She was trying to RAM THIS GUY with her car! He shot back. He's already been seriously wounded before!"

When is Tim Walz resigning.

Gov. Tim Walz & AG Keith Ellison have been referred to the DOJ for criminal charges over the Somali migrant fraud in Minnesota
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison were referred after congressional testimony which revealed "deliberate inaction" and possible cover-ups during massive Somali migrant -led fraud schemes in which they stole upwards of $9 billion from American taxpayers.

The House Oversight Committee hearing zeroed in on Minnesota's fraud under Walz's watch.

Republican state lawmakers from Minnesota accused the Democratic duo of either gross incompetence or outright complicity in schemes that funneled taxpayer dollars into fake programs, benefiting Somali migrant networks with ties to overseas money laundering.

Rep. James Comer said if Walz and Ellison refuse to testify, he will issue subpoenas.

Highlights from the hearing:

🔹Governor Walz personally used accusations of "racist" and "Islamophobic" to intimidate state employees to keep quiet and suppress investigations into the fraud, effectively protecting the Somali migrant criminals and allowing the schemes to balloon for years.

🔹Attorney General Ellison was implicated in leaked audio recordings where he was heard telling Somali fraudsters that he would "cover up" ongoing investigations and promised protection in exchange for campaign donations and political support—he later accepted the donations

🔹Testimonies confirmed that Walz's administration ignored red flags from as early as 2018, including warnings from over 480 state workers who faced retaliation for reporting the fraud, while billions in federal aid vanished into fake nonprofits run by Somali migrants.

🔹The hearing highlighted how Ellison personally met with key figures in the fraud rings shortly before receiving hefty campaign contributions, suggesting a direct financial link between the scams and Minnesota's Democratic machine.
#ChristinaAguayoNews

🔹Witnesses detailed a "web of fraud" involving 78 individuals charged—73 of Somali descent—with schemes that laundered money to Kenya, Turkey, and even terrorist-linked groups in Somalia, including a 20-year sentence for one ringleader.

Mister man please rest, it's NEVER going to happen. For one thing, investigating Somali- owned daycare center fraud is RACIST. This is something White Americans get away with every day so it's plain to see that prejudice and ISLAMOPHOBIA is driving these allegations.

It's more likely Trump will go to prison. Think about it...NY State went to the trouble of changing laws just to get Trump indicted.

That's the times we live in, it's REALITY.

You are right. Nothing will happen. Don't know whom to thank for that, the left and RINO house members are just buying time before Trump exits.Only 10 out of 90 US Attorneys have been confirmed thanks to the Senate which allowed a judge to throw out Letitia James and Comey cases. In Comeys case a different judge ordered the evidence against him not to be used, the seized emails of Dan Richman which formed the crux of the case.
Legally almost all cases end up before democrat appointed judges . In DC where most of the corruption occurs ,the juries are hopelessly biased .Ditto other areas where democrats are a majority.

This makes sense. The ICE agent had been seriously injured a few months earlier.

The ICE agent involved in a recent fatal shooting in Minneapolis had previously sustained serious injuries in a separate vehicle incident in June 2025. This officer is identified in court documents as Jonathan Ross.
Details regarding the prior incident in June 2025:
Incident description
: During an attempted arrest of an undocumented immigrant, the officer got his arm trapped in the driver-side window as the suspect sped away, dragging the officer a significant distance (roughly 100 yards).
Injuries: The agent suffered multiple lacerations and abrasions to his knee, elbow, and face, and received more than 30 stitches.
Suspect conviction: The driver in that incident, Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala, was later convicted by a jury of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous weapon which caused bodily injury.


I understand him better right now

With the criminal referral of Tim Walz and Keith Ellison,expect them to conjure up charges against the ICE agent.
Democrats are truly evil people.

Derek Chauvnik didn't expect George Floyd to die. He'd restrained him using a technique taught to law enforcement. Yet Ellison found a workaround , and the rest is history. The prosecution claimed a knee on the neck is not taught.
The pathologist initial report didn't include asphyxiation,he was sort of ordered to include the knee on the neck as cause of death by his superior

The liberals will use this death to demonize the ICE and as a rallying call to stop it's activities. As Trump ramps up successes here and there the democrats need everything to win back the house.

If Walz thinks this will shift focus, he's in for a rude awakening. Nobody is above the law!
This went down yesterday.

🚨 IT’S OFFICIAL: DOJ CRIMINAL REFERRALS FILED

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison have been referred to the U.S. Department of Justice for potential criminal charges in connection with Minnesota’s massive Somali-linked fraud scandal.

The referral comes after sworn testimony before Congress gave Rep. Anna Paulina Luna what she says is sufficient evidence that top Minnesota officials were knowingly complicit in widespread fraud involving social service programs.



📜 FULL DIALOGUE — CONGRESSIONAL RECORD

Chairman Comer:
“The chair recognizes Ms. Luna.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna:
“Thank you, Chairman Comer. Honorable Robbins, based on your record before this committee, when did Governor Walz first become aware of widespread fraud in Minnesota social service programs?”

Honorable Robbins:
“I would assume that he has been aware of it since he ran for office for governor in 2018.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna:
“By 2017, DHS investigators warned that CCAP fraud could exceed 50%. Was that information elevated to the governor’s office?”

Honorable Robbins:
“Yes, there was an OLA report.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna:
“Thank you, ma’am. By 2020, state officials knew Feeding Our Future invoices were fraudulent. We know that payments continued with the Attorney General’s knowledge. Did they continue with the governor’s knowledge as well?”

Honorable Robbins:
“Yes.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna:
“Attorney General Ellison agreed on tape to fight Minnesota’s own Department of Human and Health Services in exchange for Somali political and financial support. In your personal opinion, do you believe it is possible that Governor Walz also made that personal deal, or at least knew about the Attorney General’s agreement?”

Honorable Robbins:
“I don’t know.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna:
“Okay. I don’t want to rehash what this committee has already spent hours covering. We know there is a massive fraud issue in Minnesota.

Because of your testimony, because of the evidence presented, and because this committee—at Chairman Comer’s direction—will soon be subpoenaing Attorney General Ellison, I am making criminal referrals regarding Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison.

As you know, U.S. Code §371 and U.S. Code §2 criminalize conspiracies to defraud the United States and establish liability for those who knowingly aid or abet federal offenses. That includes willful blindness or deliberate inaction where a duty to act exists.

I will be referring them later today.”



🔥 BOTTOM LINE

Top Minnesota officials were warned.
They knew.
Payments continued anyway.

Now the evidence is on record — and the DOJ has been formally asked to act.

GREAT. Fire up the prosecutions.
