Not only does this video go hard, it's why we're going to lose. They understand our culture perfectly. Our government does not understand theirs at all

Compare this to our propaganda about Bin Laden hiding in a cave, not realizing that caves are considered holy in Islam
Being a cultural superpower has huge drawbacks: because we can go to McDonalds in any major city on the planet we forget that other cultures aren't like us

Those other cultures? Yeah, they can go to McDonalds in any major city. They watch our movies. They get us just fine
It helps that the Trump administration is incredibly make-funnable and also profoundly, obviously evil in a way that offends the senses. Every single word of this video is accurate except possibly Iran's max missle range and the Bill Clinton/Trump BJ

🧵 1/ If you’ve digested Parts 1 and 2, you’re probably starting to get a sense of where this is headed. And if you think this is all just theory, let’s take a look at Ukraine, where we can already see this resource-grabbing scheme playing out in real time. Lets roll:
2/ At first, #Ukraine didn’t play any geopolitical role for Trump at all. He simply didn’t care about it, but he had a score to settle with the country (#Hunter Biden). Then, however, the businessman in him sensed a huge money-making opportunity and a historically unique chance for blackmail.Image
3/ Think back to early 2024. For months, the MAGA #Republicans blocked vital aid. This wasn’t just domestic political squabbling. It was a deliberate attempt to starve Ukraine into a state of vulnerability, making it ripe for attack and as susceptible to blackmail as possible ⤵️

I told my therapist:

"I feel like I am burning out just to stay exactly where I am."

She didn't even ask about my workload.
She just looked at me and said:
1. The Competence Punishment

Situation: You finish your work early because you are highly efficient and know your tech stack inside out. Instead of getting your time back to rest or innovate, management simply assigns you the overflow work of your slower peers. Your reward for doing great work is just more work.

System: Never reveal your true maximum capacity to your employer. Deliver exactly what was asked, exactly on the deadline, and not a minute sooner. Use your remaining time to upskill privately, build side projects, or simply rest.

Why it works: You protect your baseline energy while building skills that actually increase your market value, rather than burning out for a company that will not pay you extra for your efficiency.
2. The False Urgency

Situation: Every single Slack message comes with a red siren. Your manager treats a minor UI bug like a company-ending crisis, demanding immediate hotfixes and dropping everything else you are working on.

System: Enforce a strict response delay. Let the message sit for 15 to 30 minutes. Most so-called emergencies solve themselves when people are forced to sit down and think for a few minutes instead of relying on your immediate reaction.

Why it works: You train your team to respect your focus blocks. You stop being their default search engine and force them to build their own problem-solving muscles.

🚨 Your best ad is getting a 5x ROAS.

$500 in spend.

Meanwhile your worst ad is getting a 2.8x ROAS at $7,000 in spend.

You're screaming at Facebook: "WHY WON'T YOU SPEND MORE ON THE WINNER?"

Here's why (and how to fix it) 👇
1. The Ad Account Ecosystem (All Ads Work Together)

Most people think Facebook ads work like this:

Person sees ad → clicks → buys

Wrong.

The reality:

Person sees 5-10 different ads across 3-7 days before they buy.

Your "bad" ad with high spend?

It's feeding people to your "good" ad that converts.
2. The Funnel Flow (How Purchases Actually Happen)

Here's what actually happens:

Day 1: Person sees top-of-funnel ad (doesn't click)
Day 2: Sees another top-of-funnel ad (still doesn't click)
Day 4: Sees middle-of-funnel ad (clicks, doesn't buy)
Day 6: Sees bottom-of-funnel ad (BUYS)
Facebook attributes the sale to the LAST ad.

But all 4 ads worked together to make that sale.

Most category pages are SEO graveyards.

Generic product grids with zero content.

I rebuilt our category pages using this framework and saw 150–200% more organic revenue.

Here's the exact blueprint:
1/ The category page problem in 2026:

Google's algorithm got smarter.
It can tell the difference between helpful category pages and lazy product dumps.

- Thin category pages → almost invisible in search
- Optimized category pages → traffic and revenue growth
2/ The category page framework:

1. Strategic architecture
2. Commercial intent optimization
3. Content layering system
4. Conversion path design
5. Technical SEO foundation
6. Trust signals integration

Skip a step → lose rankings and revenue.

Bolton: It is completely justified to strike Iran to stop it from getting nuclear weapons.

This regime has shouted death to America and death to Israel for 47 years. It is a terrorist regime, and in January it machine-gunned 32,000 people in the streets. 1/
Bolton: We have tried for decades to change Iran’s behavior through diplomacy and economic pressure.

We have tried hard and always failed. When you cannot change an adversary’s behavior, you either put up with the threat or you change the regime. 2/
Bolton: It doesn’t matter if there was an imminent threat. If you wait until there’s an imminent threat, you’ve waited too long, because intelligence can be imperfect.

I do not want to accept a world where these crazed rulers have nuclear weapons in hand. 3/

🧵New research just dropped and it challenges almost everything the culture wants you to believe about boys who grow up with violent fathers. Image
The headline finding is the one nobody wants to say out loud: Most boys who watch their fathers be violent do NOT become violent themselves. The intergenerational transmission story is far more complicated than the experts admit.
Boys across four countries were interviewed. They were not passive victims absorbing dad's behavior. They were moral agents making real decisions under terrible pressure.

New patient story.

This one will challenge everything you think you know about medicine.

Bill is 62.

6 years ago (left picture), his doctors told him:

“Go home and enjoy whatever time you have left. There is nothing more we can do.”

He just went snowshoeing.

🧵 Image
At 56, he was:

• Wheelchair bound
• Functionally quadriplegic
• 320 lbs
• On endless medications

Not one condition. Multiple complex and debilitating diagnoses. 👇
Diagnoses:

• Myasthenia gravis
• Dilated cardiomyopathy (heart failure with EF 30%)
• Arrhythmias (Atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia)
• Pulmonary embolism
• Antiphospholipid syndrome
• POTS

Seen by multiple specialists at a top academic center.

@DAGToddBlanche Why did you sideline @EdMartinDOJ ? We The People want to know? If he wasn’t following the archaic rules at DOJ, it’s because they breed corruption! I’m a victim of the Justice Department! See below:
I have had my discrimination, retaliation, hostile work environment, and constructive discharge lawsuit stonewalled for 13+ years, since I filed the complaint! I was a dedicated and highly decorated GS-15 Agent until I reported it!
The timeline and the two individuals who destroyed my career were part of an Andy McCabe systemic corruption cabal! I have lost everything and the facts + the timeline show clear progression of the retaliation and hostile work environment with broken laws & policies!

1/21 🧵 You might think from Part 1 that I consider Trump a geopolitical genius—a secret mastermind who single-handedly hatched this global transformation. Don’t worry: I absolutely do not.
2/21 He doesn’t act out of his own erratic genius. He is simply the perfect executor. A vain, unscrupulous, and easily manipulated front man who portrays himself as a doer, but in reality is merely following a prewritten script. Image
3/21 His true motivation remains maximizing his own wealth, as well as that of his family and peers. Whether through direct deals or insider bets on Polymarket or Crypto, he cashes in while the real architects work behind the scenes to reshape the world.
