In 2015, this CEO did something "insane":

He cut his $1.1M salary to $70K and raised EVERY employee's pay to at least $70K.

- Wall Street called him a "socialist"
- Rush Limbaugh said he'll go bankrupt
- Harvard said it was impossible

But what happened next shocked everyone:🧵 Dan Price wasn't some trust fund kid.

He started Gravity Payments in his college dorm room at 19, helping small businesses with credit card processing.

By 2014, the company was doing well - $150M revenue, growing 15% annually.

But Price had a problem...

Trump just pulled off the most sophisticated power play in American history.

He made Putin walk past America's deadliest weapons, then gave him a ride in “The Beast.”

All while bombers circled overhead.

Here's the negotiation masterclass behind this historic meeting: 🧵 The location choice was genius.

Alaska = former Russian territory that America bought for 2 cents per acre in 1867.

Trump forced Putin to come to land Russia once owned but LOST to America.

Every step Putin took was a reminder: "We took this from you, and we can take more."

This building in Russia controlled what 126 million Americans think.

And most didn't even know it existed.

Inside, "Russian trolls" manufactured fake Americans and decided what trends on your timeline.

Here's how Putin's $35 million mind control factory rewired democracy: 🧵 It started in 2013 in an ordinary building at 55 Savushkina Street, St. Petersburg.

The company was called the Internet Research Agency.

But everyone knew it by its real name: "The Troll Factory."

Run by Yevgeny Prigozhin - "Putin's Chef."

This past week, Trump made moves that will change America forever.

And the media is barely covering the most impactful ones.

- Military force against cartels
- $2 trillion federal spending freeze
- Your 401(k) rules just changed completely

Here's everything you need to know: BOMBSHELL #1: Trump orders Pentagon to prepare military strikes against drug cartels

On Friday, Trump signed a classified directive ordering the Pentagon to prepare military options against cartels designated as terrorist organizations.

US military operations on foreign soil.

Vegas's top minds built the most effective manipulation machine in history.

But they aren't targeting average people.

They're hunting billionaires who lose $20M+ in single weekends.

Here's how the "Whale System" extracts billions from the world's wealthiest: 🧵 First, let's define the target:

High rollers: $100K-$1M weekend budget
Whales: $1M-$20M weekend budget
Mega whales: $10M+ budget

There are only 100-200 true whales globally.

They can make or break a casino's entire quarter with a single visit.

Gutle Rothschild once said:

"If my sons did not want war, there would be none."

They weren't mafias, cartels or politicians...

But they decided every policy in Europe and America.

This is how the Rothschilds became the most powerful & hated family of 20th century: 🧵 Frankfurt, 1744.

Mayer Amschel Rothschild was born in the Jewish ghetto.

His father was a money changer and goldsmith.

At 13, Mayer was orphaned and sent to Hannover as a banking apprentice.

He learned two things: money has no nationality, and information is power.

Elon's Grok 4 rollout is generational.

While competitors ran boring podcasts and press releases...

Elon and xAI just destroyed them all with a product launch people will talk about for decades.

And it started with ONE "innocent" tweet on July 4th...

Here's the playbook: 🧵 July 4, 2025: The setup.

Elon tweets: "We have improved @Grok significantly. You should notice a difference when you ask Grok questions."

Sounds innocent, right?

Wrong. He had just removed Grok's "woke" filters so it doesn't shy away from "politically incorrect" claims.

Amazon literally KILLED Toys R Us and no one talks about it.

In 2000, they signed an exclusive deal letting Toys R Us sell on Amazon's marketplace.

But Amazon BETRAYED them to pull off one of the cruelest market takeovers ever.

Here's the untold story of Toys R Us' downfall: 1999: Toys R Us has a digital DISASTER.

Their website crashes during Christmas. Thousands of gifts aren't delivered on time.

The FTC fines them $350,000.

They're hemorrhaging customers to the internet, but their e-commerce is trash.

Enter Amazon with a "solution"...

In 2004, Mark Zuckerberg wrote in a private email:

"I'm just going to cut him out and then settle with him."

Eduardo Saverin invested $18,000 to help start Facebook.

In return, Zuckerberg destroyed him.

Here's the story behind the most ruthless betrayal in tech history: 🧵 Harvard University, 2003.

Mark Zuckerberg was a computer science student obsessed with coding.

Eduardo Saverin was a Brazilian economics major who'd already made $300k trading.

They met through their Jewish fraternity and became roommates.

Best friends, or so it seemed…

$3,440,000,000.

- If you spent $10K/day it’d take you 940 years to burn through it
- In $100 bills, it’d stack taller than the Burj Khalifa
- Enough to buy 11,500 average U.S. homes

And one man made that in a single day...

By destroying Britain.

Here’s how he pulled it off:🧵 Meet George Soros.

Born György Schwartz in 1930 Budapest to a non-observant Jewish family.

When the Nazis occupied Hungary in 1944, his father Tivadar got them fake Christian identity papers.

As a jew, it was adapt or die.

What happened next was controversial…

It's been 6 years since Epstein "killed himself."

But the infamous client list was never revealed.

Today, the FBI claimed the list never EXISTED in the first place - just days after major charges against Diddy were dropped.

Here's the shocking truth they're trying to hide: 🧵 July 2, 2025: Sean "Diddy" Combs walks out of court a partial winner.

Convicted on 2 minor prostitution charges.
ACQUITTED on racketeering and sex trafficking.

The man who allegedly ran "freak offs" with elites dodged life in prison.

Then something interesting happened...

Jaguar's downfall needs to be studied.

In April 2024, they sold 1,961 cars.

But in April 2025, they sold just 49.

A 97.5% collapse.

Why?

It all goes back to ONE mistake in November 2024.

But that's not everything...

Here's the truth behind the collapse of the decade:🧵 November 18, 2024:

Jaguar unveils their new "Copy Nothing" rebrand.

The 30-second ad features colorful models in an otherworldly setting.

No cars. Just people posing with paintbrushes and hammers.

The internet went INSANE.

The history teacher who predicted the US–Iran war a YEAR ago just warned:

“We’re now approaching the end of the world.”

He already correctly predicted:

- Trump’s military strategy
- The war timeline
- Israel's real plan

Here’s what he says comes next (and how to survive it): This guy predicted Trump vs. Iran a year ago using historical patterns.

While everyone focused on elections, he studied 2,500 years of empire collapse.

His "Iran Trap" video laid out exactly what would happen.

And now he's dropped another bombshell…

16 BILLION passwords just leaked from:

- Apple
- Meta
- Google

And many others.

There's over a 50% chance one of your passwords was leaked too...

Big Tech is panicking. Everyone’s changing their logins.

Here’s the truth behind the biggest data breach in history:🧵 This isn't your typical breach.

Cybernews researchers discovered 30 separate databases containing login credentials for "pretty much any online service imaginable."

The smallest database? 16 million records.
The largest? Over 3.5 BILLION.

Total damage: 16 billion records.

McDonald's ice cream machines are "broken" 25% of the time.

But this isn't an accident...

It's a billion-dollar scam that's been running since 1956.

Here's how a hidden company rigged the system to steal from every McDonald's customer:🧵 Since 1956, Taylor Company had an EXCLUSIVE contract to make McDonald's ice cream machines.

No competition. No alternatives.

13,000+ McDonald's locations are locked into their machines.

The perfect monopoly setup…

After 6 bankruptcies, every major US bank blacklisted Trump.

Chase, Citibank, Bank of America - they all said "never again."

But ONE bank kept writing him checks for $2+ BILLION...

Here's the controversial story behind Trump's financial lifeline:🧵 By the late 1990s, Trump was radioactive on Wall Street.

- 4 casino bankruptcies
- $900M+ in defaults
- Stiffed contractors and lenders repeatedly

Every major American bank had a simple policy: "No Trump loans, ever."

He was completely frozen out of the US financial system.

This tiny island nation made $1.6 BILLION selling EU citizenship.

- Russians oligarchs
- Sanctioned arms dealers
- Convicted money launderers

They all bought their way into Europe - for just $650,000.

Here’s how one forgotten country controversially gamed the EU system:🧵 Meet Malta:

A Mediterranean island with just 420,000 people.

Smaller than most cities, but with a BIG problem:

How do you fund a modern economy on a tiny rock?

Their solution? Sell the most valuable thing they had - European citizenship.

In 1914, Henry Ford made a decision that shocked the business world...

He DOUBLED his workers' wages overnight.

Competitors called him a "madman" who would destroy the industry.

Instead, he transformed America forever.

Here's how (and what you can learn from it):🧵 Before the "$5 Day," Ford's factories were a nightmare:

- Turnover reached 370% annually
- 10% of workers quit or were fired DAILY
- Workers endured 9-hour shifts of mind-numbing assembly line work
- The average employee lasted just 90 days

Ford needed to solve this crisis.

The most powerful family in the world today isn’t the Rothschilds or Saudis…

It’s one that rarely does interviews and barely posts online.

Yet almost EVERYONE uses their product.

Here are the top 10 most powerful families (and how they built their empires):🧵 10/ The Rothschilds

Once controlled half of the world's wealth.

Today, they're still worth billions - no one knows the exact amount.

In 1815, Nathan Rothschild learned of Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo before anyone else.

His next move?

In 1957, this man won the Nobel Prize.

Yet he wanted more.

So he hired the brightest minds in America to commercialize his idea.

But what happened next became the most impactful betrayal in history...

Here’s how the "Traitorous Eight" created Silicon Valley:
William Shockley wasn't just any scientist.

At Bell Labs, he co-invented the transistor - the most important electronic breakthrough since electricity.

It won him the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics.

When he founded Shockley Semiconductor, top talent flocked to him…

PayPal nearly went bankrupt 5 times in 2000.

But ONE desperate move saved them:

Paying users $10 to sign up and $10 for each referral.

This 'suicidal' growth strategy cost $60M but created a $300B giant.

Here's how Elon and Peter Thiel's 'blitzscaling' changed tech forever: A small group huddles in a Palo Alto office as their bank account bleeds $10M per month.

Peter Thiel and Elon Musk face a brutal reality:

Their payment startup Confinity just merged with X. com, but bankruptcy is around the corner.
