🇺🇸 America didn’t prosper by importing millions of Chinese or Indians.

When America became a super power, won WW2, and had the strongest cultural unity we were operating under the Immigration Act of 1924 and were 90% White.

They came here because our country had already prospered.

America was founded and built by Europeans. Similar cultures and values.

When people say we’ve always been a nation of immigrants… true. But it was very specific immigrants who the men before us thought would assimilate best.

We never mass imported indiscriminately.

🇷🇺👩‍💻💻❗️ — Leak of 2 Million Secret Documents Exposes secret Russia’s Nuclear Bases

➡️ European journalists from Danwatch and Der Spiegel have obtained access to a massive trove of 2 million documentsdetailing Russia’s strategic nuclear facilities.

➡️ Among them are detailed blueprints of the ultra-secret base in Yasny, where Avangard missiles are stationed, including everything from toilet locations and tunnel maps to security systems and surveillance cameras.

What was leaked:

📌 Building plans, tunnel diagrams, IT systems, security layouts, and alarm schematics.
📌 Lists of sports equipment, wall posters, and soldiers’ leisure activities.
📌 Critical information revealing structural vulnerabilities.

➡️ This appears to be the largest intelligence leak in the history of the Russian military.

➡️ Any foreign intelligence servicenow has enough material to pinpoint weak spots.

➡️ Toilets, motion sensors, tunnel routes, gym equipment — journalists now have CIA-level access. It’s a security disaster the Kremlin won’t be able to cover up.

➡️ The fallout could force Russia to rebuild parts of its nuclear infrastructure from scratch — potentially costing billions.

➡️ The leak supposedly happened via state procurement tenders, where contractors accidentally posted classified files online.

⁉️ Russia’s Ministry of Defense has not commented on the breach

🇺🇸🇨🇳 Rubio says US will ‘aggressively’ revoke visas from Chinese students, revise visa criteria

Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday announced the United States will “aggressively revoke visas” from Chinese students, including “those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields.”

The U.S. State Department will work with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to revoke the visas, and it will also “revise visa criteria to enhance scrutiny of all future visa applications from the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong,” according to a statement from Rubio.

“The U.S. will begin revoking visas of Chinese students, including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields,” Rubio said on the social platform X.

🇺🇸📚 San Francisco is poised to introduce ‘equity grading.’ This will give students who ‘make a reasonable effort’ a grade of at least 50%. Students will not be penalized for not doing work at all. This is all to ‘eliminate socio-economic disparities’ that grading reinforces.

Of course the purpose is to make it harder to distinguish between people using objective measures. This will backfire - it’s like how no one takes a Harvard degree at face value when the person is black because they are aware the system is rigged.

And as is typical - there is a ‘consultant’ involved who will train teachers in the new system at cost to the taxpayer - all to ruin the schools. Newsweek article in next post.

🇺🇸 Federal court blocks Trump from imposing sweeping tariffs under emergency powers law

A federal court on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump from imposing sweeping tariffs on imports under an emergency-powers law, swiftly throwing into doubt Trump’s signature set of economic policies that have rattled global financial markets, frustrated trade partners and raised broader fears about inflation intensifying and the economy slumping.

The ruling from a three-judge panel at the New York-based U.S. Court of International Trade came after several lawsuits arguing Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs exceeded his authority and left the country’s trade policy dependent on his whims.

🇨🇳🇹🇼 China could try to seize Taiwan's outer islands, claims intelligence report

A US intelligence report says China may try to seize Taiwan’s outlying islands to pressure Taipei and test Washington.

The US Defense Intelligence Agency, DIA, released its Worldwide Threat Assessment earlier this month, per The Independent. It identifies Beijing’s possible attempt to seize outlying islands such as Kinmen, Matsu, Dongsha, Taiping Island, or Penghu as one of its potential military options short of an all-out invasion of Taiwan.

While the DIA report does not anticipate a full-scale Chinese invasion of Taiwan this year, it warns that the PLA may ramp up its activities around Taiwan’s offshore territories, potentially advancing from maneuvers to seizure operations. The report says:

“China possesses a variety of military options to coerce Taiwan, including increasing the frequency and scope of China’s military presence operations, air and maritime blockades, seizure of Taiwan’s smaller outlying islands, joint firepower strikes, and a full-scale amphibious invasion of Taiwan."

One of the great unbarking dogs in american politics is that there's no upswell of support for entitlement cuts among young people, does that change as a more conservative generation of young people has trouble finding jobs after college?

🇺🇸 The thing to understand about student visas is that most colleges are selling tickets to naturalization more than education (hence rampant cheating, low quality students, etc). Even if we should be selling citizenship, why should colleges be able to privatize the gains?

Also one of the 9/11 hijackers was on a student visa and two more got them after the attack... for flight school.

🇺🇸 Bill adding regulations to Texas renewable energy misses key deadline

Legislation that would have added several layers of regulation to new wind and solar power facilities – rules opposed by renewable energy producers and environmentalists – missed a key deadline Saturday and is unlikely to pass this year.

Senate Bill 819, authored by Sen. Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, would require new utility-scale wind and solar plants to undergo Public Utility Commission approval and public notice. In addition, new wind turbines would have to be set back from neighboring property lines by twice the height of the turbine and blade unless a waiver was signed, according to the most recent version of the measure.

🇺🇸🛠 U.S. manufacturing productivity per hour has been mired in a grinding macro slowdown for nearly two decades! Since the post-GFC plateau, productivity gains have significantly trailed the pace that once powered America’s industrial ascent.

This isn’t just about aging factories or cheap offshore competition; it’s a sign of deeper structural drag: chronic underinvestment, thinning industrial workforces, and the fading momentum of past automation waves.

With manufacturing stuck near 11% of GDP and failing to reclaim its efficiency edge, the sector risks becoming a weight on broader economic dynamism, feeding into cost pressures and eroding global competitiveness.

What needs to be done? Instead of abruptly starting an aggressive, unnecessary trade war, policymakers should reignite innovation pipelines and rebuild the skilled workforce, or risk watching a once-mighty engine sputter into crap!

🇪🇺❌🇷🇴 Due to the disastrous economic situation, Romania has defaulted on its financial obligations towards Ukraine and the EU is now placing fines on Bucharest!

Romania failed to contribute in time with 18.6 million EURs to the European Peace Facility and now the EU is placing a 3.181 EUR fine/day until Romania pays what it "owes" to Ukraine + the daily penalties.

This money should've been paid on April 14th but the EU granted a "month of grace" and didn't apply penalties until May 13th after which the fines started coming in. The government is now scrambling to use the reserve fund to pay the sum before the fines make it too expensive.

🇬🇷🇮🇳 Greece ready to bring 50,000 workers from India

Greece is one step away from signing the intergovernmental agreement to send workers from India.

The country with the largest population on the planet is settling the final details to proceed, if possible, with the signing of an intergovernmental agreement with Greece after the end of the summer.

The agreement will aim to address the huge problem of the lack of labor that plagues many sectors in our country by providing for the transfer of highly specialized workers to many sectors of the Greek economy (such as catering and tourism).

According to Proto Thema, India is interested – at least in the first phase – in sending approximately 50,000 skilled and unskilled workers per year within the framework of the intergovernmental agreement that is expected to be signed.

🇭🇹🤝🇺🇸🏴‍☠️ — Haitian Provisional government turns to Mr. Erik Prince, a Trump ally, in Fight Against Gangs

➡️ Erik Prince, a private military contractor and prominent supporter of President Trump, is working with Haiti’s Provisional government to conduct lethal operations against gangs that are terrorizing the nation and threatening to take over its capital.

➡️ Mr. Prince, the founder of Blackwater Worldwide, signed a contract to take on the criminal groups that have been killing civilians and seizing control of vast areas of territory, according to senior Haitian and American government officials and several other security experts familiar with Mr. Prince’s work in Haiti.

➡️ Haiti’s government has hired American contractors, including Mr. Prince, in recent months to work on a secret task force to deploy drones meant to kill gang members, security experts said.

➡️ Mr. Prince’s team has been operating the drones since March, but the authorities have yet to announce the death or capture of a single high-value target.

➡️ Security experts said Mr. Prince has also been scouting Haitian American military veterans to hire to send to Port-au-Prince and is expected to send up to 150 mercenaries to Haiti over the summer.

➡️ He recently shipped a large cache of weapons to the country, two experts said.

🚢🇺🇸 John Konrad on X: I was asked at a panel why should we support large shipyards at all?

Small yards can innovate and test fast. Small boats give us options and command experience for young officers.

The problem with small boats is physics. Small boats are slow, have limited range and payload capacity. They need to be extensions of, not replacements for, larger ships.

The problem with large ships is also physics. They require a lot of steel and are difficult to produce.

But here’s the thing. If we support both we could have the best of both worlds.

Small yards can innovate and test new construction methods and designs rapidly, then only the best, proven methods can be transferred to larger yards.

So why can’t we just invest in small yards now and build new large yards later?

Because large yards take enormous amounts of space and time to develop.

The bottom line is we need to invest in both. Build out the large yards and get them rolling while developing ways to transfer technology from the small yards.

Do both simultaneously. Otherwise we won’t have any large shipyards left when it’s time to scale what Saronic proves to be scalable.
