This is the guy Democrats want to destroy.

THE BILLIONAIRES DOING THIS AREN’T THE ONES MAKING HUGE DONATIONS TO DEMOCRATS:
Robert and I are thrilled that our gift of over 2 million shares of SpaceX stock will be distributed to children’s Trump accounts in December!
Our initial gift (shares transferring to escrow as we speak) will go to 11 to 17-year-olds who live in zip codes with median family…— Gwynne Shotwell (@Gwynne_Shotwell) October 30, 2026
CHANGE: Delta turning Tampa into an international air hub.
Of course in 20 years most long-haul international travel will be by suborbital Starship hops.
COLOR ME UNSURPRISED: At Talarico Rally, Jasmine Crockett’s Pastor Calls ICE ‘the New KKK’: Talarico Thanks Him for His ‘Kind Words.’ “The Dallas pastor, who’s seeking Crockett’s seat, previously praised Karmelo Anthony as ‘our friend.’”
WISDOM FROM JERRY POURNELLE:
Our thought for the day, riffing a bit off of one of Pournelle's thoughts on peace:
"Communism" is the name of the alleged ideal we attribute to an oligarchy under which, by the cover of pleasant sounding political and social (and genetic) nonsense, that cannot bear objective…— Tom Kratman (@TKratman) October 30, 2026

OPEN THREAD: Boo!
ROLE MODEL:
Young women are dressing up as Sophie Cunningham for Halloween and RECREATING her famous finger point..
The left called her hateful for protecting girls' sports. Now she has over 9 MILLION followers across all platforms combined, and she’s become a role model for young girls… pic.twitter.com/dElksYdzHt

WHY IS IT THAT PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BAN GUNS NEVER SEEM TO KNOW MUCH ABOUT THEM? Virginia AG: AR-15s Are Really Just Machine Guns That Shoot Semi-Automatically…Or Something.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF SINGULARITY IS HERE:
Funniest thing about this is that median nationwide scores are plummeting at the same time the test is getting easier.
Students are getting dumber faster than they can dumb down the test 😂 https://t.co/VxIXSnEVKg

A singularity of stupid.
SADLY TRUE.
This is a somber reminder that in a struggle for political power, the most intolerant side will win. Every single time. There are no exceptions.
It is time to be intolerant of those who wish us destroyed. And intolerant of evil as a whole.
No more turning the other cheek. https://t.co/Z63zUlY6sW

That’s why our enemies have been telling us to be tolerant.
THE SINGULARITY IS HERE:
The Singularity is now
We were told the Singularity would arrive like a comet – a date, a flash, a headline. It won't. It's already here, and it looks like a press release nobody reads.
Anyone who has been trading knows this. Compounding is boring for years, then sudden. The… https://t.co/d3ltF4Gioi

As I’ve said many times before, one characteristic of a singularity is that you can’t tell when you’re entering it.
NEWS YOU CAN USE:
Most people freeze when the power stays out past a day because they never practiced the one skill that turns cold water into something drinkable and damp wood into heat, and that gap is exactly why clear-headed preparation beats last-minute panic every time. I laid out the case… https://t.co/oqDKTtiMS7

21ST CENTURY SPORTS: I’m Running the New York City Marathon Topless. The Reason Is Not What You Think.
THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY I WAS PROMISED:
Basically this thing is about the same size as an equivalent output diesel generator (1MWe) but will run for 5 years without refueling. Pretty cool stuff. https://t.co/fKUk95fbbg

Actually we could have had these in the 20th if Tom Hayden hadn’t chosen the antinuclear movement as a vehicle to keep the activist cohort from the anti-Vietnam War crowd alive (and drawing paychecks) after the Vietnam War ended.
TRUE.

SOME PEOPLE ARE POISON. THEY’RE USUALLY LEFTIST PEOPLE.

“I HAD SPENT YEARS DISMISSING THOSE WARNINGS BECAUSE THEY CAME FROM REPUBLICANS.”
"Worse, a remarkable number of the things Republicans had warned about seemed to be happening right in front of me. I had spent years dismissing those warnings because they came from Republicans.
That was a deeply uncomfortable realization."
