What did removing Saddam, Gaddafi, Assad get us? Chaos, civil war, genocide.
The rule for regime change operations in the Middle East is that they don’t flip a country from bad-to-good. They flip a country from bad-to-worse.

Hero of Bondi Beach 14/12/25 Ahmed El Ahmed, Muslim
Hero of Huntingdon 15/11/25 Samir Zitouni, Muslim
Hero of Paris 26/05/18 Mamoudou Gassama, Muslim
Hero of Hypercacher 9/1/15 Lassana Bathily, Muslim
How many lives must Muslims save before we stop calling them terrorists?

This is the most fascinating X post of 2025.
AIPAC thinks it’s an attack on MTG to accuse her of sharing the Squad’s unwillingness to be slavishly loyal to Israel.
But what this attack reveals is that AIPAC has so badly “overplayed tbeir hand” that they now have REAL PROBLEMS on the political left and right.
The post literally advertises their greatest weakness - growing bipartisan opposition.
MTG isn’t some outlier here. Support for Israel is at a historic doldrum precisely because AIPAC has driven division, war and chaos.
They should register as the foreign agents they are.
I proudly stand with MTG and my fellow AMERICANS.
.@RepMTG has gone full Squad.
Same message, same legislation, same anti-Israel vision.
The horrible war is only happening because Hamas refuses to free the hostages & surrender power.
Yet, MTG and her friends in the Squad won’t take any action to pressure Hamas to end it. Why?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned Hamas for the October 7th attacks.
x.com/RepMTG/status/…
MTG has made a distinction between actions taken against Hamas and the civilian population of Gaza.
"Does Hamas deserve it? Yes. Do innocent people and children deserve it? No."

Had some fun writing a nerdy paper about whether or not VC is valuable - check out how one quantifies VC as an equation and what you should think about as a founder when choosing a VC in “Value Neutral Money Is All You Need”

muslim and arab (especially palestinian) colleagues in the tech community i've spoken with feel uncomfortable speaking about their recent experiences, often out of fear of retaliation and damaged career prospects.
our industry should be united in our support of these colleagues; it is an atrocious time. i continue to hope for a real and lasting peace, and that in the meantime we can treat each other with empathy.

Where is Powell? Where is Yellen? Stop this crisis NOW. Announce that all depositors will be safe. Place SVB with a Top 4 bank. Do this before Monday open or there will be contagion and the crisis will spread.

The strategy was amazingly effective, and it's still being played effectively. He's not in handcuffs and the media continues to bury the lede. Maybe there's a lesson here for the industry?
I have a question for the Defendant, Your Honor: were you lying then or are you lying now?

The reason I have so much passion for #Bitcoin is largely because of the model it demonstrates: a foundational internet technology that is not controlled or influenced by any single individual or entity. This is what the internet wants to be, and over time, more of it will be.
Really disappointing how bad @Zipcar has become ...car broke down twice in 48 hours. Time to cancel membership
