The reason top tech companies often hire foreign-born & first-generation engineers over “native” Americans isn’t because of an innate American IQ deficit (a lazy & wrong explanation). A key part of it comes down to the c-word: culture. Tough questions demand tough answers & if we’re really serious about fixing the problem, we have to confront the TRUTH:Our American culture has venerated mediocrity over excellence for way too long (at least since the 90s and likely longer). That doesn’t start in college, it starts YOUNG.A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math olympiad champ, or the jock over the valedictorian, will not produce the best engineers.A culture that venerates Cory from “Boy Meets World,” or Zach & Slater over Screech in “Saved by the Bell,” or ‘Stefan’ over Steve Urkel in “Family Matters,” will not produce the best engineers.(Fact: I know *multiple* sets of immigrant parents in the 90s who actively limited how much their kids could watch those TV shows precisely because they promoted mediocrity…and their kids went on to become wildly successful STEM graduates).More movies like Whiplash, fewer reruns of “Friends.” More math tutoring, fewer sleepovers. More weekend science competitions, fewer Saturday morning cartoons. More books, less TV. More creating, less “chillin.” More extracurriculars, less “hanging out at the mall.”Most normal American parents look skeptically at “those kinds of parents.” More normal American kids view such “those kinds of kids” with scorn. If you grow up aspiring to normalcy, normalcy is what you will achieve.Now close your eyes & visualize which families you knew in the 90s (or even now) who raise their kids according to one model versus the other. Be brutally honest.“Normalcy” doesn’t cut it in a hyper-competitive global market for technical talent. And if we pretend like it does, we’ll have our asses handed to us by China.This can be our Sputnik moment. We’ve awaken from slumber before & we can do it again. Trump’s election hopefully marks the beginning of a new golden era in America, but only if our culture fully wakes up. A culture that once again prioritizes achievement over normalcy; excellence over mediocrity; nerdiness over conformity; hard work over laziness.That’s the work we have cut out for us, rather than wallowing in victimhood & just wishing (or legislating) alternative hiring practices into existence. I’m confident we can do it. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

What are the odds that this goes to SCOTUS only for SCOTUS to rule that the SNAPS program is supposed to be the responsibility of the individual states and that the federal government should NOT be managing it?

Like, show me where in the consitution that the federal government is supposed to be responsible for endlessly giving gibs to completely useful people, with a smidgen of it going to people who genuinely have no alternative.

(L | A) Member of Violent Extremist Network ‘764’ Charged with Animal Crushing, Sexual Exploitation of a Minor, Cyberstalking and Interstate Threats

A federal grand jury in the Eastern District of California has returned a six-count indictment against Tony Christopher Long, also known as Inactive, Inactivee0, and inactivecvx, 19, of Porterville, California, charging him with animal crushing (two counts), sexual exploitation of a minor, possession of material involving the sexual exploitation of a minor, cyberstalking, and transmitting an interstate threat. Long is currently in state custody on related charges.

“This defendant allegedly engaged in acts of extreme cruelty by exploiting a child, abusing animals, and threatening violence — his conduct reflects the depravity of ‘764,’” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “These networks seek to terrorize and destabilize our communities by preying on the most vulnerable, and the Justice Department will stop at nothing to dismantle this network and bring offenders to justice.”

Guess no one has posted this because a lot of people dislike either Nick Fuentes or Tucker Carlson, but Tucker and Nick had a debate today. I will be posting any interesting points that come up, but it is the last thing I expected from Tucker to have Fuentes on.
Anybody have any go to archival tools for long format videos like this to post on the forum?

Tucker giving this fag a platform is really starting to sour my opinion of the man. Between this and throwing a bitch fit when called out on his legit CIA and money connections I'm starting to get very skeptical of his intentions.

I think they are trying to rehabilitate Fuentes into a normal smart everyday guy like what they did with that Syrian terrorist guy.

Agreed and I sure as hell don't like it. This faggot isn't somebody the youth should look up to.

Also lol at the dems desperate enough to employ the cum town guy.
 

Portland, Oregon doubles down by codifying their sanctuary status; the riots continue to escalate. Mob rules.

Mob is setting up an immigrant help/training center right across the street from the ICE facility.

I don't think you're winning math olympiad with that spelling and grammar, champ.

It's not a Chad Vs. Chud inceldom thing. Greatness in all its forms - physical, mental and spiritual should be celebrated by the American spirit.
 
It is a cliché because it is true: with neoliberals, every accusation is a confession. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the visibly wackadoodle communist who was crowned the Future of the Democrat Party provides yet another example: https://xcancel.com/bennyjohnson/status/1982656802014773725

Well then...
“We have a crisis of missing and murdered indigenous and black women in the United States. Today I want to discuss part of this crisis that is all to often overlooked, but whose evidence shows that there is a very meaningful connection here: the correlation between fossil fuel extraction sites and abductions and murders of indigenous women across the United States.”

“We’re going to transition to a 100% carbon-free economy that is more unionized, more just, more dignified and that guarantees more health care and housing than we’ve ever had before.”

“Trans kids are awesome, incredible, beautiful, and wonderful. Bigotry is not. Republicans need to stop obsessing over other people’s gender identity bc frankly it’s very weird and they’re doing a lot of harm to children who are just trying to be themselves.”

“I can say, there is absolutely a commission being discussed but it seems to be more investigatory, in style rather than truth and reconciliation, so I think that’s an interesting concept for us to explore, and I do think that several members of Congress, in some of my discussions, have brought up media literacy because that is a part of what happened here and we’re going to have to figure out how we rein in our media environment so that you can’t just spew disinformation and misinformation.”

AOC has used her powerful voice on Twitter to take on the issue of too many statues of white people in Washington: “We have 100+ statues and portraits in the Capitol. Almost all of them are of white men. The erasure of women & BIPOC from American history is a feature of white supremacy.”

The federal government needs to fund the de-programming of white supremacists and conspiracy theorists, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Friday night.
Click to expand...
“It’s not just like some moral question about how you confront racism in elections, but it is now an existential crisis for the Democratic Party,” Ocasio-Cortez said. The problem, she said, is Democrats don’t want to talk about race. “Anti-racism plays zero percent of a role in Democratic electoral strategy — zero, explicitly, implicitly,” she continued.

Lastly but not least, here are Shark Eyes toning down the rhetoric in the aftermath of last year's assassination attempt on Trump, by proclaiming that he is a “neo-Nazi”:

A scene from Jaws comes to mind. Remember Quint?
“Y’know, the thing about a shark, he’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When he comes after ya, he doesn’t seem to be livin’ until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white…”

If shitlib Democrats aren’t the crazy ones, then the normal people who naturally find them repulsive must be.

While the crazy-eyed AOC personifies neoliberalism at it's most insane, the front row behind her underscores the outlandishness of fellow Marxist Zohran Mamdani’s foreign-born support.

The courts aren't involved one way or another. This is just theater a Congressional report. A prosecutor somewhere would now have to indict one of the people with an autopen pardon for anything more to happen.

Probably first they'd try and get a conviction, most likely a sweetheart plea deal, for the forgey. Then build off that to prosecute one of the Pardoned(Fauci first plz)

Then what in the world is the Rasmussen guy saying? Apparently independents are upset with trump as they see him looking too much outside.(I agree)
Click to expand...
CNN showing polls favoring Trump, while Rasmussen has been Poll dooming for months. It's a bizarro flip, and I'm not quite sure what's going on.

I don't see CNN faking polls in Trump's favor as a reverse psychology mode, they are the #2 TDS market place, my only guess is that it's trying to convince the Dems to give in from all the advertisers that profit off of gibs.

It would be extremely retarded to want the blacks to riot at the moment. Black Fatigue is at an all time high, they've had a terrible year for Noticing, and they lost their Race War Secret Police.

Oh sweet summer child, it's going to be a blood bath. Vance is one of the few people who could bait Newsom into ripping off his mask and going full Greg Stinson on live tv
Click to expand...
Vance can do it with literally anyone. It's because he has a calm demeanor that makes him sound reasonable, but at the same time he points out people's bullshit and exactly what they're lying about. He respectfully punks them out.
You can definitely tell Trump picked him to be his vice president because he doesn't feel like a politician, but he's one of the best politicians alive right now.

Under current SCOTUS logic, the states already do. The fed gives them money, but each state runs their own program. They could of course choose to keep running it without the fed giving them money and some are, but that would require forethought n' shit and that's hard.

Nah, the primary on the dem side will be one of the biggest shitshows you've ever seen. I'll probably catch a mile of shit for this, but AOC is my dark horse to win the democrat nod. the gop primary should be vance's to lose, even more so if he picks Rubio as his vp. Was talking to a friend last night about it, and i hate the thought of it, but if Trump happens to die before then, it might be more up in the air. I don't think that's going to happen, trump is fairly healthy, and with Trump campaigning for vance it's gonna be a fairly easy process.

AOC is more likely to be Vice President fodder than President fodder.
