1/ QProofs in @POTUS @realDonaldTrump @politico interview 1/17/2026 (17=Q). As in the past, the President does not openly say "Q is real," but he does provide a number of clues which together are highly validating. The words he says in the interview match prior Q statements. 🧵 
2/ Whether Q is real is extraordinarily important. If indeed the drops can be read as coming from the President (Q+) and his inner circle, then we have a communication channel to be decoded stretching back 8+ years.
3/ I am not going to spend time debating whether the drops are real or revisiting the history. I will take a moment to share that I wrote a book about Q - been following from the beginning. Others howeve are far more expert than I at decoding the messages. amazon.com/Learning-Q-Pat…
Breaking: Apple isn’t launching a phone this year.
They’re launching a pocket supercomputer.
And most people still don’t realize what this means.

This phase of history is operating on a level deeper than politics alone.
This is not reactive.
It is not spontaneous.
And it is not being driven by politicians.
What you are watching is a controlled transition of power, unfolding beneath the surface, while the world argues over the headlines.
Let’s go further… 🧵👇🏼

Power never disappears.
It only moves.
When institutions lose legitimacy, power shifts quietly before the public ever notices.
History proves this every time.
Empires fall not with explosions, but with exposure.

This is not a war of bombs and boots.
This is a war for cognition.
Who controls the narrative controls consent.
Who controls consent controls nations.
That is why this war is being fought in headlines, screens, emotions, and attention.

⚡️There is a false claim circulating online that Ukraine allegedly provided the US with “distorted intelligence” that was later used by russia.
This is a deliberate conspiracy theory that was voiced in foreign media without any facts to back it up. (1/4)

✅ Claims about an “inevitable breakdown” in the partnership between Ukrainian and American intelligence services are also false. In reality, Ukraine continues to cooperate with its allies and partners in the field of security, and the exchange of information continues. (2/4)
This disinformation is being spread in a number of russian public groups, as well as on social media by fake accounts with the aim of undermining trust between Ukraine and key Western partners, especially in the context of the dialogue on the peace plan. (3/4)
Most startups burn cash on paid ads that disappear the moment the budget runs out.
One approach generates lasting value.
Here's the SEO investment thesis that actually works for early-stage companies: 🧵👇

Here's the SEO investment thesis that actually works for early-stage companies: 🧵👇
1/ Why startups avoid SEO:
Common objections:
"SEO takes too long" (6-12 months)
"We need growth now" (investor pressure)
"Paid ads are faster" (immediate traffic)
"We'll do SEO later" (after product-market fit)
Result: Spend $500K on ads, traffic stops when budget runs out.

Result: Spend $500K on ads, traffic stops when budget runs out.
2/ The compounding advantage:
SEO vs paid comparison:
Paid ads (12 months, $10K/month budget):
- Month 1: 2,000 visits
- Month 6: 2,000 visits
- Month 12: 2,000 visits
- Stop paying: 0 visits
- Total investment: $120K
- Asset value: $0 (traffic stops)
SEO (12 months, $10K/month budget):
- Month 1: 200 visits
- Month 6: 3,500 visits
- Month 12: 12,000 visits
- Stop paying: Traffic continues growing
- Total investment: $120K
- Asset value: Permanent traffic asset

1) Yesterday Chris Bray had a terrific piece on the paradox of blue cities/states still existing, yet constantly collapsing.
2)
3) It comes down to this: most of these states (NY, CA, IL) are big with large populations and long established economies.chrisbray.substack.com/p/what-blue-zo…

4) They don't just collapse as an out-of-style Las Vegas casino implodes. Rather, think of it like a slow spreading cancer.
5) As he points out, people move from the inner cities. Yep. We've seen that. But then they go to liberal enclave suburbs & those begin to decay.

6) He gave an example of a burb close to Groomer City (SF) that saw its fire dept cut by more than half. A single house fire didn't see a fire truck for 14 minutes, by which time it had spread to three more houses. The police forces in many of these burbs have dropped by half.
I want to tell a real investing story that still bothers me. Not because I was wrong. But because I was right and still failed. Thread.
In Nov 2020 I bought a Canadian company almost everyone thought was uninvestable.
Bloated for years. Too much debt. Never consistently profitable. Dependent on government goodwill. Most investors had written it off.
Ask these 7 questions if you really want to know what's on your child's mind.. 🧵
A Constitution eligibility requirement to hold office of @POTUS @VP is being a natural born citizen = US born to US citizen parents. If Grok is asked it WRONGLY states just being US born is a natural born citizen. US born to NON-CITIZEN parents wouldn't be citizens at all if we weren't accepting birthright citizenship wrongly conferring US citizenship. Grok is programmed to enable future Constitution usurpation as by Barack Obama and Kamala Harris. Neither is a natural born citizen. Its IGNORED. usatoday.com/story/news/nat…
@FFT1776 @POTUS @VP Grok will wrongly state that a natural born citizen is ANYONE US born. A natural born citizen is US born to US citizen parents. US citizenship may be acquired by 14thAmend naturalization process but 14thAmend does not make one a natural born citizens.
@FFT1776 @POTUS @VP @POTUS @realDonaldTrump appointee @PaulIngrassia wrote @NikkiHaley is not eligible then neither is @marcorubio because their citizenship status mirrors each other. Both are US born to NON-CITIZEN parents. amgreatness.com/2024/01/01/the…
We're living in the era of the performative grind.
We’ve confused "show work" with "grow work."
One is optimized for being seen by others.
The other is optimized for actually getting better.
We've traded actual progress for the appearance of it.

Show work is effort designed for the algorithm.
It’s the early morning cold plunge picture.
It’s the carefully curated stack of books on your desk.
The goal shifts from mastery to signaling expertise or achievement to an audience.
And over time...when you prioritize the image, you neglect the substance.

First, it changes our actual drive.
Your brain knows what you value...and it isn't the work!
You start performing struggle instead of actually experiencing it.
You look for the "struggle" that films well and ignore the kind that actually changes you.
You miss the entire point of the challenge.
Growth requires a vulnerability that social media doesn't reward.

Velikovsky did...
Key tenets of Velikovsky's theory:
Venus as a Comet: Venus was once a comet ejected from Jupiter, roaming the solar system.
Close Encounters: This "cometary Venus" had several near-misses or collisions with Earth and Mars, particularly around 1500 BCE.
Earth's Catastrophes: These encounters caused:Earth's rotation to stop or slow dramatically (explaining Joshua's miracle).
Axis tilts, continental shifts, and massive floods.
Deposition of hydrocarbon-rich "manna" (oil drops) in the Sinai.
Mars's Role: Mars also had close contacts with Venus and Earth, causing further havoc in the 8th and 7th centuries BCE.
Hmmmm.

I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE DON’T USE GEMINI FOR FLIGHT BOOKINGS
Most travelers still book flights like it’s 2018.
Meanwhile, Gemini can reason through flight pricing like a pro travel hacker.
Here are 20 prompts that make flight booking feel unfair:

Meanwhile, Gemini can reason through flight pricing like a pro travel hacker.
Here are 20 prompts that make flight booking feel unfair:
1/ Price Trend Reality Check
Prompt:
“Look at how flight prices for [ROUTE] have moved over the last 2 weeks.
Tell me if prices are genuinely rising, falling, or just fluctuating noise, and explain what’s actually causing it.”

2/ Real-Time Price Pulse
Prompt:
“Analyze flight prices for [ROUTE] in the last 24–72 hours.
Are prices moving up, cooling down, or holding steady?
Explain what changed and whether this movement usually continues or reverses.”
