And now I’m here on Oxford Street, London on my way to this morning’s photoshoot and admiring the newly installed allahu akbarriers, just in time to keep Christmas shoppers safe from Muslims with mental health issues who want to drive into pedestrians and kill them.

“Abortion is so back, baby!” That’s what young women were cheering at Keisha Lance Bottoms’ election night party in Georgia. Our culture is so disordered that celebrating the killing of children has become a victory chant.

In 1957, a Russian immigrant published a novel of more than a thousand pages built around one question: what happens if the people who make the world run simply stop? Its title is Atlas Shrugged. In France it's called La Grève, The Strike. It wasn't even translated into French until 2011. That tells you something. This morning, I think Elon Musk wrote the sequel. A. Where the book comes from. Ayn Rand was born Alisa Rosenbaum in Saint Petersburg in 1905. As a teenager, she watched Bolshevik soldiers walk into her father's pharmacy and seize it in the name of the people. Her family lost everything. Not to a competitor. To a committee. She fled to America in 1926 and spent the rest of her life writing about one distinction: those who create, and those who seize. B. The story. In Atlas Shrugged, America is sliding into decline. Not because of war. Because of rules. Year after year, a growing class of bureaucrats, regulators and planners decides that production must be controlled, shared "fairly," frozen. They never build anything. They issue directives. The worst one freezes every worker in his job and forces every inventor to hand over his patents for the public good. And one by one, the people who make the country run start disappearing. The best engineers. The industrialists. The inventors. An oil man sets his own wells on fire before vanishing. The whole country keeps repeating a question it doesn't understand: "Who is John Galt?" John Galt is the man behind the disappearances. He has convinced the creators to go on strike. They withdraw to a hidden valley in the Colorado mountains, where everyone keeps what they make and trades freely. And they let the world find out what it looks like without them. The lights go out in New York. The grey men are left alone with their directives, and discover that a directive has never produced a single kilowatt. C. The core idea. The strike isn't about money. It's about consent. Rand's insight is that the system that captures the creators runs on their cooperation. It needs them to keep producing so it has something to redistribute. The bureaucrat is a parasite who needs a host. Remove the host, and he's exposed as what he always was: useless. D. What Musk just did. This morning, Musk announced that next year he will give one of his own SpaceX shares to every kid in America. "The first of many." Here's what's fascinating. It's the strike, run in reverse. Rand's creators withdrew. Musk stays. He keeps building rockets, satellites, AI. But instead of walking away from the system, he walks around it. The value goes straight from the builder to the citizen. No ministry, no agency, no committee in the middle. Rand had to make the creators disappear to prove the bureaucrats were useless. Musk doesn't need to disappear. He just needs to stop routing value through them. Same result. The grey men are left standing in the middle of a pipe nobody uses anymore. E. The difference that changes everything. Rand's strike has a flaw her critics never stopped pointing out: ordinary people are left behind. The creators retreat to their valley. The rest of the country sits in the dark. Musk's version fixes that. He isn't taking the creators out of the world. He's bringing the world into the valley. Every kid in America becomes a shareholder in the machine. Not a spectator of the strike. A participant. That's the alliance being formed right now: builders and citizens, directly, with nothing in between. And the only people who lose that deal are the ones who never built anything. F. Why now, and not in 1957. In Rand's time, the strike was a fantasy. You couldn't produce at scale without the state's permission, and you couldn't reach every citizen without its pipes. In 2026, one founder can build rockets, run a global network from orbit, and pledge equity to 73 million children in a single post. AI will soon do in seconds what a ministry does in years. The tools of the strike finally exist. And they don't require anyone to leave. G. The ending. For seventy years, "Who is John Galt?" was a shrug. A way of saying nothing can be done. In the book, the strike ends when the creators decide the road is clear and walk back into the world to rebuild it. That's the scene we're watching. Not a man leaving. A man coming back, with a gift for every child. The grey men are about to discover what Rand promised them seventy years ago: a world that no longer needs them.

This guy embodies one of the most popular archetypes used to bully white men throughout the world. Yet after being attacked, he gets back up, stands his ground, and faces his attackers to defend whatever remains of his store. His attackers, meanwhile, behave like a pack of hyenas. Whatever bravery they have is only because of their numbers and their de facto anonymity — police wouldn’t arrest them anyway. So, the guy who looks like the punchline of a thousand jokes actually displays more honor in a single moment than literally the entire recorded history of his attackers. He has no crowd to hide behind, no numerical advantage, and seemingly very little left to protect. What has happened to him will either be ignored or excused as having been caused by some kind of socio-economic problem which is ultimately his fault anyway. Nevertheless, he stands there. I would take one thousand Jacques Blacks before taking a single refugee.

European bureaucrats are already panicking over how they're going to regulate this.

La bonne nouvelle même si cela n’effacera jamais les abominations commises sur cette malheureuse le 7 octobre 2023, c’est que tous les barbares qui apparaissent sur cette photo ont été éliminés par IDF.

BREAKING: AMLC CONFIRMS ₱319.3M FROM CHINA WENT TO CALE88 FOODS Anti-Money Laundering Council records presented at Vice President Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial showed ₱319.3 million flowed to Cale88 Foods Corp. through 143 remittance transactions from mainland China and Hong Kong. The records appear to support an earlier claim by former Sen. Sonny Trillanes. Cale88 Foods has been linked in the proceedings to Duterte’s husband, Atty. Mans Carpio.

Pag confirmed na talaga na si Lani Cayetano nakaupo sa Tapang at Malasakit foundation ni Sara tapos tumanggap ang foundation na yan ng Chinese funding to do God-knows-what. Hindi lang ang VP ang threat to national security pero pati mga Cayetanos.

Shayla Joelle Perez completely owns a group of Muslim women. Most Muslim countries have freedom of speech in their constitutions; however, they have blasphemy laws that protect their religion from meaningful debate because it would crumble like a house of cards. Also, why is that one Muslim woman not covering her head?

Watched EDJOP again during the first day of showing last 16 September 2026 with my mother-in-law the patriotic journalist Gloria Galuno, my wife May-i and her nephew Clarence. I am glad my wife and I had a little part of this film as "taumbayan". I am proud because the film is

AOC and Mamdani are seen laughing and smiling together as names of honored dead are read at Ground Zero:

If you’re trying to figure out why our government is so dysfunctional and why the sensible middle never seems to win elections, stop; I’m gonna tell you: it’s because the problem isn’t just the old farts, it’s also the new little shits.
