- $NVDA CEO when asked about confidence in hyperscalers continuing to grow CapEx: "I am confident in their cash flow growing, and the reason for that is very simple. We have now seen the inflection of agentic AI and the usefulness of agents across the world in enterprises everywhere you're seeing incredible compute demand because of it".
- $NVDA CFO: "We shipped our first Vera Rubin samples to customers earlier this week, and we remain on track to commence production shipments in the second half of the year."

- @MarioNawful
- BREAKING: Trump asked everyone who agrees the government's first duty is to protect American citizens, not illegal immigrants, to stand up. Not a single Democrat stood. Ilhan Omar and others heckled him. Trump fired back: "You should be ashamed of yourselves." On primetime. In front of millions. Moment of the night. (video)
- @EmeraldRobinson
- Yes, there are secret indictments. Yes, there are secret grand juries. Yes, there are secret taskforces. But the CIA and some of Trump's advisors are trying to keep the rigged election machines in place. Our republic hangs in the balance.
- They want you looking for aliens and not the Epstein files. They want you looking for Nancy Guthrie and not the Epstein files. They want you watching hockey games in Italy and not the Epstein files. That's because a satanic pedophile ring owns 90% of global media.

- “The fight against global warming - may involved blocking sunlight”. “This is simply government’s way - to control your weather”. “Bill Gates is funding this through Harvard university”. Are you wondering why 95% of the time - the sky is a solid shade of white? Well, this is the reason.. (video)
- @karma44921039
- Government factions and private contractors are engaging in CHEMICAL WARFARE against their own people. From weather control to health risks, this "conspiracy" is now undeniable. They are literally poisoning every living thing, including our planet. U.S. Air Force whistleblower Kristen Meghan exposes government geoengineering—spraying toxic chemicals like aluminum and barium into our skies. (video)

- @NotRadix
- Judge Salas was assigned 4 days ago to unravel all of the money laundering in the Epstein case. Hundred of millions worth with banks, suspects, whole black book. Yesterday a gunman shows up at her house, shoots her husband, kills her son, and escapes without going into house. Funny how everyone forgot about this.
- @Holden_Culotta
- Thomas Massie just declared: “This government is under siege.” And he exposed Susie Wiles and Pam Bondi for taking “millions of dollars from Bayer.” “All three branches of this government are under siege by lobbyists and lawyers from a German company named Bayer.” “They spent over $9 million lobbying … so that they don’t have to be liable for any damages their herbicide Roundup causes.” “The Constitution guarantees people a trial if they’ve been harmed.” “Why are we contemplating going against the Constitution?” “The Attorney General has opined favorably for this German company in front of the Supreme Court about getting rid of any liability that they should have for any damages.” “By the way, the President’s Chief of Staff and the President’s Attorney General worked for one of the biggest lobbying firms that’s received millions of dollars from Bayer.” “Maybe that’s why we’ve seen an executive order that says that the production of this chemical from this German company is a national defense priority.” “And we know why they’re doing that.” “It’s to keep them from having any liability.” “This is wrong.” “We shouldn’t succumb to the lobbyists, not in the executive branch, not in the judicial branch, and certainly not here in Congress.” (video)

- Undercover at CattleCon: Ranchers & Insiders Expose How Tyson, JBS, Cargill, & National Beef Secretly Control America's Beef Market. The OMG team did a deep dive, going undercover at CattleCon 2026 in Nashville, Tennessee. We spoke with beef industry insiders and ranchers about the top four companies, Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and National Beef, which dominate U.S. beef processing. These four companies process the majority of U.S. beef. Over time, dozens of smaller processors merged into four major companies now known as the “Big Four.” “They [Big Four] are buying like all the companies in the United States… so they don’t have competition.” “They [Big Four] can knock you out of this industry in two seconds.” “They [Big Four] closed all the markets — all the markets are theirs in Brazil and now in the U.S.” (video)
- @seanmdav
- This is classic failure theater from Thune. He doesn’t want to do the work of forcing Democrats to maintain a real filibuster, so he’s just going to file cloture on their zombie filibuster, which will fail. Then he can immediately move on to what he really cares about: passing corporate welfare for K Street. Failure theater from do-nothing Republicans should be mocked and condemned, not praised. (video)
- @WallStMav
- BREAKING: Senate Leader John Thune will bring the Save Act to the floor to "put them on the record". However this sounds like it is designed to fail. He is NOT going to force them to debate. Thune will just give a token vote that doesn't reach 60 votes. Then he will say, "oh well, we couldn't get it through. Let's move on to vote for other stuff that is more important to my donors."

- Catherine Herridge has released a staggering interview that reveals 17% of children nationwide are the victim of sexuaI abuse in our public schools by school employees. This would be 8 million students. (video)

- These are the people who were paid to call Candace Owens evil or a demon. Whatever you think of her, smearing someone for money is morally bankrupt. (list)
- @ArthurMacwaters
- This is critical: 1. The SAVE act is overwhelmingly popular (84% across both parties) 2. The silent filibuster is a total abuse of Senate procedure, allowing 40 Senators to block the bill while literally sleeping 3. If Thune does not have the courage to at least require debate, then the SAVE Act will fail. And if it fails now, the next time the senate flips, it is very likely that voter ID will be eliminated altogether. This would result in a permanent one-party state. (pic)

- Abigail Spanberger was known by her colleagues in the IC as a failure because she was unable to grasp the focus of the CIA without partisanship. She was frustrated by the mission of the CIA and the demand to keep politics out of the job - ultimately she left to be an open Democrat activist. Her colleagues complained about her attempts to politicize intel at every turn.
- @sayerjigmi
- A convicted sex offender was co-developing a Pentagon research program whose applications were explicitly acknowledged — in writing — to have weapons potential. The applicant credited Epstein with the guiding vision: "Your idea!" This was not just proximity to power. This is operational.
- @War4theWest
- 3 examples of horrible Trump endorsements: 1. Greg Abbott for TX governor instead of Doc Pete Chambers? Abbott collaborates with Democrats to run the Texas Statehouse. 2. Tony Gonzales instead of Brandon Herrera for congress, TX district. Gonzales had an affair with a young staffer who killed herself over it. 3. Byron Donalds for Florida governor. It's just been revealed that Donalds impregnated his current wife while married to his previous wife. None of these candidates are actual hard core MAGA. This is just an example of endorsements Trump has made of horrible candidates. I believe Susie Wiles is behind much of this.
