Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached. They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others. Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further. #UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.

I just watched this incredible documentary on PBS “Hannah Arendt: Facing Tyranny” and it sent chills down my spine. It’s frightening how much “the banality of evil” is embedded in what we’re living through today. Every chapter of her life speaks to us now. You can watch it here free until July 26:

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

DOGE isn't just cutting vital government services. Each federal job loss could also result in the loss of at least one additional worker in the private sector. Working people having less money in their pockets to spend stifles local economies. What’s “efficient” about that?

The Atlantic has now published the Signal texts with attack plans in response to administration denials. I worked at the Pentagon. If information like this is not classified, nothing is. If Hegseth is claiming he declassified this information, he should be shown the door for having done so.

If you ever wondered how the KGB manipulated foreigners and got them to repeat Soviet propaganda, spend some time listening to Steve Witkoff talk about his wonderful conversations with Vladimir Putin.

Die Union schafft sich eine Schatzkiste – und wir sollen die Zustimmung für ihr Spielgeld liefern. Stattdessen brauchen wir nachhaltige Reformen für zusätzliche Investitionen in unsere Sicherheit, in unsere Infrastruktur und das Klima. 2/2

Friedrich Merz hat im November versprochen, nie mit der AfD zu stimmen und dieses Versprechen im Februar gebrochen. Er hat das Beibehalten der Schuldenbremse bis zur Wahl versprochen und dieses Versprechen direkt nach der Wahl gebrochen. Das Wort von Friedrich #Merz ist nichts wert.
