Democrats made a lot of accusations and a lot of promises. We gave them the ball back. Now, it's up to them. I'm not hopeful.

Dear Elon,
Please consider banning political propoganda for a few days after the election. We need a break.
Thank you for your attention.

"Who is Elon Musk."
In 1957, a Russian immigrant published a novel of more than a thousand pages built around one question: what happens if the people who make the world run simply stop?
Its title is Atlas Shrugged. In France it's called La Grève, The Strike. It wasn't even translated into French until 2011. That tells you something.
This morning, I think Elon Musk wrote the sequel.
A. Where the book comes from.
Ayn Rand was born Alisa Rosenbaum in Saint Petersburg in 1905. As a teenager, she watched Bolshevik soldiers walk into her father's pharmacy and seize it in the name of the people. Her family lost everything. Not to a competitor. To a committee.
She fled to America in 1926 and spent the rest of her life writing about one distinction: those who create, and those who seize.
B. The story.
In Atlas Shrugged, America is sliding into decline. Not because of war. Because of rules. Year after year, a growing class of bureaucrats, regulators and planners decides that production must be controlled, shared "fairly," frozen. They never build anything. They issue directives. The worst one freezes every worker in his job and forces every inventor to hand over his patents for the public good.
And one by one, the people who make the country run start disappearing. The best engineers. The industrialists. The inventors. An oil man sets his own wells on fire before vanishing. The whole country keeps repeating a question it doesn't understand: "Who is John Galt?"
John Galt is the man behind the disappearances. He has convinced the creators to go on strike. They withdraw to a hidden valley in the Colorado mountains, where everyone keeps what they make and trades freely. And they let the world find out what it looks like without them.
The lights go out in New York. The grey men are left alone with their directives, and discover that a directive has never produced a single kilowatt.
C. The core idea.
The strike isn't about money. It's about consent.
Rand's insight is that the system that captures the creators runs on their cooperation. It needs them to keep producing so it has something to redistribute. The bureaucrat is a parasite who needs a host. Remove the host, and he's exposed as what he always was: useless.
D. What Musk just did.
This morning, Musk announced that next year he will give one of his own SpaceX shares to every kid in America. "The first of many."
Here's what's fascinating. It's the strike, run in reverse.
Rand's creators withdrew. Musk stays. He keeps building rockets, satellites, AI. But instead of walking away from the system, he walks around it. The value goes straight from the builder to the citizen. No ministry, no agency, no committee in the middle.
Rand had to make the creators disappear to prove the bureaucrats were useless. Musk doesn't need to disappear. He just needs to stop routing value through them. Same result. The grey men are left standing in the middle of a pipe nobody uses anymore.
E. The difference that changes everything.
Rand's strike has a flaw her critics never stopped pointing out: ordinary people are left behind. The creators retreat to their valley. The rest of the country sits in the dark.
Musk's version fixes that. He isn't taking the creators out of the world. He's bringing the world into the valley. Every kid in America becomes a shareholder in the machine. Not a spectator of the strike. A participant.
That's the alliance being formed right now: builders and citizens, directly, with nothing in between. And the only people who lose that deal are the ones who never built anything.
F. Why now, and not in 1957.
In Rand's time, the strike was a fantasy. You couldn't produce at scale without the state's permission, and you couldn't reach every citizen without its pipes.
In 2026, one founder can build rockets, run a global network from orbit, and pledge equity to 73 million children in a single post. AI will soon do in seconds what a ministry does in years. The tools of the strike finally exist. And they don't require anyone to leave.
G. The ending.
For seventy years, "Who is John Galt?" was a shrug. A way of saying nothing can be done.
In the book, the strike ends when the creators decide the road is clear and walk back into the world to rebuild it.
That's the scene we're watching. Not a man leaving. A man coming back, with a gift for every child.
The grey men are about to discover what Rand promised them seventy years ago: a world that no longer needs them.

"Empires of lies don't fall from blows. They fall the day no one believes in them anymore."
Il y aura un avant et un après le 17 octobre 2026.
Qu'on arrête de nous raconter que la jeunesse française s'est soulevée pour une école en panne. C'est faux.
L'immense majorité des lycéens n'était pas dans la rue samedi. Si on lui demandait son avis, elle dirait qu'elle veut étudier, bosser, construire sa vie. La majorité silencieuse ne brûle pas des mairies.
Ce qu'on a vu samedi, ce n'est pas une révolte sociale. C'est une instrumentalisation totale. Des structures radicalisées qui utilisent des gamins de 16 ans comme bouclier moral et des revendications légitimes comme paravent.
Mais il faut comprendre d'où ça vient.
Pendant 20 ans, le bloc central a gouverné main dans la main avec le globalisme bruxellois. Macron, Ursula von der Leyen, la Commission, les mêmes réflexes, le même mépris pour les nations, la même certitude d'avoir raison contre les peuples. Ils ont laissé l'immigration se gérer toute seule. Ils ont laissé l'école s'effondrer. Ils ont laissé la vie devenir hors de prix. Et chaque fois que quelqu'un osait le dire, ils le traitaient de raciste, de facho, d'extrême droite.
Ce système a fabriqué le chaos. Et aujourd'hui, c'est l'extrême gauche qui le récolte.
Voilà l'intrication que personne ne veut nommer. Le centre globaliste a créé le vide. L'extrême gauche s'y est engouffrée, en s'appuyant sur une immigration mal gérée et une jeunesse qu'on a abandonnée. Les deux se détestent en apparence. En réalité, l'un produit les fractures, l'autre les exploite. Et les deux ont un ennemi commun : ceux qui disaient la vérité depuis le début.
Samedi, des millions de Français ont regardé les images. L'hôtel de ville de Limoges en feu. Un poste de police saccagé à Marseille. Des journalistes agressés à Paris. Et ils ont compris : ceux qu'on faisait taire décrivaient simplement la réalité.
C'est pour ça que je suis optimiste.
On est à l'aube d'une prise de conscience globale. Je le dis depuis longtemps : on va vivre un nouveau 1989. Les empires du mensonge ne tombent pas sous les coups. Ils tombent le jour où plus personne n'y croit.
La France tombera la première. Mais elle tombera la première pour se relever la première. La fin du globalisme incarné par Macron et von der Leyen ne sera pas la fin de l'Occident. Ce sera sa renaissance.
Le 17 octobre, quelque chose s'est brisé. Pas la France. Le mensonge.
On s'en souviendra.

"Unbiased" journalists are marching straight into obscurity.
Marched this morning. Now let’s vote. 🗳️ 4 candidates in 4 states Trump thought he had: @SherrodBrown in Ohio, @hallieshoffner in Arkansas, @ERodforCongress in Florida and @Justinjpearson in Tennessee. Trump country is up for grabs. 17 days, folks. 👇 xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/1kKzDPjgv…

Resist.
Ask yourself a simple question. Why is almost every celebrity on the same side?
Actors, singers, late-night hosts, award-show presenters. Thousands of people with different backgrounds, different lives, different temperaments. And somehow, on every major issue, they land on the exact same opinion, at the exact same moment, with the exact same hashtags. Free minds don't behave like that. An ecosystem does.
Now ask a second question. Elon Musk is landing rockets on their own tails. He's bringing internet to villages that never had a phone line. He's building cars that drive themselves and implants that let paralyzed people move a cursor with their thoughts. Artists are supposed to be the ones who dream about the future. Here is a man actually building it. How many of them stand next to him? A handful. Why?
Because Hollywood is not a free market of talent. It's a royal court.
A young actor doesn't make it because he's good. Hundreds are good. He makes it because someone lets him in: an agent, a casting director, a producer, a studio, an awards committee. Every step is a gate, and every gate has a keeper. When your whole career depends on a few rooms, you learn very quickly what can be said in those rooms and what can't.
This is how it works. First you stay silent. Then you nod. Then you repeat. Then you believe. Compromise never arrives all at once. It arrives one dinner, one role, one red carpet at a time. And once you've given up enough, you need the system to stay in place, because the system is the only thing that makes the sacrifice worth it.
Want to see the whole mechanism in a single story? For decades, one of the most powerful producers in Hollywood was the subject of accusations from dozens of women, and much of the industry treated it as an open secret. A host even joked about it at an Oscar nominations announcement, and the room laughed. Speaking up seriously meant losing everything. When the truth finally broke, the same industry dressed in black and applauded its own courage. Silence while it pays. Virtue once it's safe. That's the system.
And that's the real lie. Not that these people are monsters. Most aren't. The lie is calling it courage. Real courage costs you something. Saying what every room in town already applauds costs nothing. Saying the opposite is what costs. That's why so few artists stand with Elon. Not because they've studied his ideas and rejected them, but because standing there is a career risk they can't afford.
Look at what happened to him when he left the consensus. Advertisers fled. Friends disappeared. Invitations stopped. He could afford it. Almost nobody else can. That tells you exactly how free that world really is.
So wake up. Stop taking your political cues from people whose paycheck depends on agreeing. A celebrity endorsement is not an argument. It's a loyalty signal. Your vote, your convictions, your children's future: don't outsource them to people who are paid to recite lines someone else wrote.
The people who build the future rarely get applause from the people who perform it.
Think for yourself. It's the most American thing you can do.

Just when I thought Democrats couldn't sink any lower here they are flooding my feed with Happy Indigenous People's Day posts an Columbus Day. If they actually cared they would give our Indian friends their own day.

I am absolutely certain that the media will treat the AI story with due diligence, responsibility and truth- no sensationalism, click bait or propoganda. Yup, no doubt about it, we are in good hands.

He's not wrong . . .
This whole Macklemore situation is so spiritually Palestinian.
Ed Sheeran became one of the biggest musicians in the world by writing good music, he built an audience, and people spend hundreds of dollars to come hear his music.
Macklemore gets invited onto that stage and decides to hijack Ed Sheeran’s concert for his political rally. Ed built the stage and brought the audience, and Macklemore decided he was entitled to commandeer it for his demented cause.
And when Ed Sheeran tells him this is a concert, not a political rally, and he doesn’t want to take sides, he becomes the villain.
This is Palestinianism. You build nothing. You bite the hand that feeds you. You leech onto things other people built and destroy them.
These parasites have hijacked every institution, every cultural event, everything other people built, and feel entitled to selfishly destroy it for their tribal clan politics.
