Theres a very long list of US products that cannot be sold in the EU thanks to EU regulations. Since the favorite pastime of the Trump regime and every US oligarch is now to demonize EU regulations, I thought it would be very much worth going through some of those products.🧵 Image
US Instant Mashed Potatoes

Stuffed with enough BHA and BHT preservatives to give the product an expiration date of absolutely never, the EU decided to outright ban the product, depriving Europeans from what is otherwise a cheap and convenient way to encourage hairloss. Image
US Pork

Because American pigs are often fed large amounts of ractopamine, a drug that does wonders in increasing muscle growth in pigs and cancer in humans, the EU has deemed the product unsafe and banned it, seemingly without much concern for the profits of US oligarchs. Image

Lewiston Maine DMV - (RECORDED CALL) - INSANE
How Illegals Get Driver Licenses In Maine

I called on behalf of "Mohammad Mohammad", an illegal foreigner from Somalia who speaks no English & killed someone driving in his home country.

Requirements:
+Birth certificate or other country document
+A document or ID with signature
+25 out of 30 multiple questions right & road test

*That's it. Anyone can call and verify. Maine Department of the Secretary of State allows for any foreigner to get a driver's license or state ID. Any document from the country can easily be forged.

**In the state of Maine, it requires a state ID to register to vote. That is it. There is absolutely no mechanism to prevent voter fraud. This is why Shenna is blocking the Trump admin from data.

***I was absolutely blown away with how easy & quick it was. Not to mention if the foreigner commits a crime here or loses their license, they can easily just go get a new one with a different name - with forged documents that cannot be 'checked'.

****After Diane Bell was run over in Portland & the child from Fryeburg ended up in Lewiston by a foreign driver that spoke no English - I needed to call & hear the process myself.

-This needs to end.
On a side note - Voter ID in Maine would make no difference since the requirement to register only takes a state ID.

Shenna Bellows issues these to illegal foreigners.
Every candidate for Governor should be running to end this.

@_Ochiedike You have adopted the same posture of heart that Satan has towards God. A posture of rebellion and you're openly defying him. You are now speaking the language of rebellion thoroughout your twitter feed.
@_Ochiedike Your relationship with God is adversarial just like Satan's relationship with God is adversarial. You hate God, you treat him like your enemy just like Satan. You despise God, his rule, his authority and his character, you think he is not good or worth of worship.
@_Ochiedike In the garden of Eden, Satan convinced Adam to take the same side with him. In heaven he also convinced angels to take the sane side with him. You have chosen to take the same side with Satan just like the disloyal angels that chose Satan.

A new product, a new customer, a new financing!

2/ Back then, we registered some energy-related domains and put power on our product roadmap—but expected we'd ship supersonic first, then launch our energy product

Right now, Instacart is quietly running experiments on millions of us while we shop for groceries online. They are trying to figure out exactly how much they can get away with charging you for breakfast cereal, lunch meat, pasta, and everything in between. How do I know? 1/9 Image
The @Groundwork team, @KatieJWells, and I teamed up with @ConsumerReports & @MorePerfectUS to recruit more than 400 secret shoppers. We asked them to buy the exact same basket of groceries, from the exact same store, at the exact same time. You won’t believe what we found. 2/9
@Groundwork @KatieJWells @ConsumerReports @MorePerfectUS Instacart charged shoppers different prices for about 75% of the items in the basket–sometimes they charged as much as 23% more for the exact same item. Using Instacart’s own estimates, we find that the Instacart tax could cost households as much as $1200 a year. 3/9

🚨Veamos qué dice la sentencia que condena al Fiscal General.

Es una sentencia muy motivada e interesante desde el punto de vista jurídico, tanto si se está de acuerdo, o en desacuerdo, con la condena del FGE.

Aviso, esto es un análisis jurídico. Política, a otra cuenta🧵⤵️
Se alegaron muchas cuestiones previas.

1/ La Abogacía del Estado alegó que no concurrían los presupuestos para acordar el secreto de sumario.

Frente a ello razona la sala que no se vulneró el derecho de defensa y que acordar el secreto está motivado y es ajustado a Derecho. Image
Image
Image
2/ Se alegó la nulidad del Auto de entrada y registro.

Frente a ello la Sala razona que el Auto era proporcional y estaba adecuadamente motivado, y de forma reforzada como se exige. Y que no había otra alternativa (ya que, en ese caso, se renuncia a la propia investigación) Image

Pour les cent vingt ans de l'une des lois les plus importantes de l'humanité, la loi de 1905.
Un thread.
Quand Mitterrand décida d’abandonner la cause sociale pour appliquer une politique de droite, le problème était qu’il risquait de perdre son électorat.
Il chercha une nouvelle cause, qui devait réunir deux conditions : être morale et ne pas avoir l’air d’être conservatrice, car c’est ainsi que les petits-bourgeois essaient de croire qu’ils sont de gauche.

🔥 THREAD: The Silver–Oil Ratio Just Hit Its 2nd Highest Level in History — And Nobody Seems to Understand What This Means

(Read this before you sleep… if you still can.) Image
1/
Something insane is happening in the commodity world.
Not in gold.
Not in copper.
Not in oil.

➡️ In SILVER.
And it’s flashing a warning signal we haven’t seen in decades.
2/
The silver-to-oil ratio—how many barrels of oil 1 oz of silver can buy—just spiked to the 2nd highest level in modern history.

Let that sink in:

🥈 One ounce of silver buys more energy than almost any time since WWII.

🧵 #ULTIMAHORA | 2026: El SAT cambia las reglas para todos los contribuyentes en México
En 2026 el SAT amplía facultades y redefine por completo la relación entre contribuyente y Estado.
Lo que viene es un cambio estructural de poder fiscal. 👇
1️⃣ A partir del próximo año, la autoridad podrá suspender operaciones, cancelar sellos y restringir la actividad de una empresa con un simple indicio administrativo, incluso sin sentencia y sin comprobación plena de delito. ⚠️
2️⃣ Lo que antes era fiscalización, ahora evoluciona a un sistema de presunciones.
Basta que la autoridad sospeche que una factura es apócrifa o que existe alguna inconsistencia para detener timbrado y llevar al contribuyente al terreno penal. 🧩

Ever heard someone say that modern Bibles have “removed” or “taken out” verses from scripture? Let’s talk about it… a 🧵. Image
Although it's almost always phrased as "who took this* verse out of the Bible, and when?" it's actually a case of "who put this verse* into the Bible, and when? It's not so much the case that modern Bibles have
"missing" verses as it is that the King James has added verses. Image
Here’a how I articulate the position in ep.2 of Can I Trust the Bible?

Met with a prospect who’s been paying himself $60K since 2019.

His business now makes $600K.

That frozen salary is costing him $25,000 in unnecessary taxes.

Every. Single. Year.

Many S-Corp owners have this exact problem and don’t know it:
When you formed your S-Corp, your CPA said “reasonable salary.”

So you threw out a number and went back to work.

Your business grew and your salary stayed frozen like it’s 2019.

December 31st is your deadline to fix this.
For high earners, the math is simple:

Take total business income

Add back all salaries

Multiply by 2/7

That’s your optimal total salary for QBI for you and all other employees.

$600K business, $60K salary?

He should be at ~$170K.

Every year he waits costs $20-30K.

Luigi Mangione Day 6 (Day 5 of testimony) Afternoon: Patrolman Fox back on the stand to continue his cross-examination by Karen Agnifilo.
KA is going through the order of events prior and after the Miranda Warnings were read.

Fox now confirms that Mangione did move his head in a "side to side" direction when asked the question of why he used a fake ID.

KA: You told him he could remain silent correct? Then you ask him if he has any weapons?

Fox: Yes Ma'am

KA: So at 9:52AM, you knew he had a knife.

Fox: Yes Ma'am

KA: But you allowed him to keep his hands on the wall, you didn't cuff him, correct?

Fox: It was moments- I put my gloves on to get the knife, and then I looked at Burns, and he shook his head to place him in handcuffs.

Fox says Mangione asked him if he could take his jacket off (before he got the knife) and Fox says he told him to hang on and place his hands on the wall. KA says we should watch the BWC footage of this sequence (we are).
KA: So when you put him in handcuffs, you had the same information that you had before putting the cuffs on him?

Fox: Yes Ma'am

KA confirms it's not illegal to carry a knife, and Mangione told Fox where to find it, and states that "he was still detained (or arrested?) even though carrying a knife is not illegal."
