Quote I

"I think that's what President Trump did. He triumphed against massive adversity. He's still doing that with bullets flying by his head," Constantino said. "And we triumph too. Nobody thought we could build a massive sticker company or a massive tech company in upstate New York." Sticker Mule CEO Anthony Constantino

Quote II

But we now know that that was an overly simple view, that if the platforms, whether it’s Facebook or Twitter or X or Instagram or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don’t moderate and monitor the content we lose total control and it’s not just the social and psychological effects it’s real harm, it’s child porn and threats of violence, things that are terribly dangerous.

Years of misinformation from supposed “experts” like Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx and organizations like the CDC have convinced millions of Very Smart People to believe that masks are an effective tool to reduce the transmission of respiratory viruses. This applies also to the flu, despite those same experts and organizations somehow neglecting to recommend masks for the decades of flu seasons pre-2020.

You thought "they" hated Elon Musk before. "They" are besides themselves now.

Cops: Hurricane Looters Hit Trump Merch Store
Suspect claimed stolen goods had just "washed up" during storm

SEPTEMBER 30--As Hurricane Helene battered a Florida city covered by a state of emergency declaration, two men allegedly burglarized a “Trump Store” stocked with merchandise promoting the ex-president, according to cops who say one of the alleged looters was wearing a “Trump cowboy hat” when busted.

On Friday evening, investigators patrolling a closed-off section of Madeira Beach, a city in the Tampa Bay area, discovered two men loitering outside a closed business plaza whose tenants include a realtor, a gift shop selling crystals and shark teeth, and the Trump store.

Krissy Miller, 49, from Provo, was hiking the popular trail in September 2023 when she crossed paths with Shiller Joseph, 45, from Florida. As the two struck up a conversation during their hike, Miller learned that Joseph had been on the kidney transplant waiting list.

Moved by his story, Miller—mother of four—made a spontaneous yet life-altering offer: she would donate one of her kidneys.
