Things I’ve Learned
What I wish I knew at 18…
1. College is mostly a scam
I’m glad I went to college, because I wanted to work on Wall Street. But today, I wouldn’t waste $300,000 on it, and I wouldn’t want to work in banking. Instead, I’d load up on college credits during…
Dems: trump collided with Russia
Dems: hunters laptop is Russia
Dems: voter fraud is a myth
Dems: coronavirus came from bats
Dems: masks and lockdowns work
Dems: the vaccine will stop the spread
…
…
Dems: we need a Ministry of Truth to fight disinformation
I thought everyone knew the E. Jean Carroll vs Trump case was bogus, until I heard my mother's (late 60s Republican) uninformed take on the verdict after watching ABC Nightly News.
It's hard to find on Google, so here's what you need to know about E. Jean Carroll, most of which…
.
@aoc
has a 430 credit score, two evictions, and an empty résumé
Just two months ago, she couldn’t afford an apartment in DC
Now, the Democratic leadership has put her on the Financial Services Committee & the media is saying that her Green New Deal will “reshape” the economy
Joe Biden’s daughter said that her dad showered with her inappropriately.
The FBI confirmed it today.
This is the sitting President of the United States.
How is this not a huge story?
Officer Aquilino Gonell (under oath):
“I was bleeding from both hands, [had] a maimed foot, hit on the head, sprayed with pepper and bear spray, beaten, punched, pushed, pulled, and assaulted."
The video:
Senator Cory Booker (D) was in Israel when the war broke out. He used his influence to flee the country.
Congressman Cory Mills (R) was in the US when the war broke out. He flew to Israel and saved 32 Americans, and counting.
Fani Willis has a room temperature IQ.
She makes $110,000 a year.
And yet, she is worth $8 million.
In court, she admitted to several finance-related felonies.
The DOJ could take her down in a day if they wanted to.
Just so I understand this…
Liberals are now cheering for Vanguard, Blackrock, and Saudi Arabia…
And against free speech, and the guy who pioneered electric cars and reinvented space travel.
Things you learn in Texas:
- The guy in the F-150 is worth a lot more than the dude in a BMW.
- The small business owner from a state school is smarter than the majority of Princeton grads.
- Rednecks are more honorable than investment bankers.
- Hardworking legal immigrants…
So,
@cnn
and
@ChrisCuomo
, who said we couldn’t read Hillary’s emails because they were illegally leaked to Wikileaks, is currently playing leaked, illegally-recorded conversations between Trump and his lawyer.
The New York judge says Mar-a-Lago is worth between "$18 and $27.6 million."
A nearby vacant lot (2.3 acres) is for sale on Zillow for $200 million.
Mar-a-Lago sits on 17 acres, with waterfront on both sides.
Someone tried to burn down MLK Jr’s birth home last night.
They were spotted by tourists and detained until the cops arrived, and arrested her:
A black woman.
Another fake hate crime that could’ve led to violent protests.
If Chauvin were black, would the verdict have been the same?
If Floyd were white, would the verdict have been the same?
By definition, unless you can confidentially say “yes” to both, you can’t also claim this verdict is an example of a just system at work.
Don’t be fooled by supermarkets and subways in Russia.
Did you know they:
- jail and silence political opponents
- are ruled by an unelected elite class to whom laws don’t apply
- have a two-tiered justice system
- indoctrinate kids in schools
- suppress free speech
- control…
If you believe you are a victim of Jeffrey Epstein, or have information about the conduct alleged in the Indictment unsealed today, please call 1-800-CALL FBI
The Maine shooter - Robert Card - was:
- "known to law enforcement"
- previously committed to a mental institution
- prohibited from owning firearms
- a convicted pedophile
While the FBI was busy infiltrating PTO meetings, church groups, MAGA rallies, and raiding the homes of…
Harvard and Penn hired “teams” from the prestigious law firm, WilmerHale, to prepare for their Congressional testimony at $1,500 an hour per lawyer.
And that was the result!
Changing leadership at these schools changes nothing.

@tedcruz

His private jet to Texas for the game cost $30k.
His debate with
@benshapiro

Had I been in Hawaii, I would’ve calmly ordered the most expensive wine on the menu and enjoyed the sight and sounds of the ocean….
And then, when the bill came 40 minutes later and I was still alive, I would have been really fucking pissed off.
Baltimore IS infested...
with crime
with drugs
with poverty
with rats
with unemployment
with dilapidation
And six decades of inept, corrupt Democratic leadership.
There is nothing racist in stating plainly what most people already know, that Elijah Cummings has done a terrible job for the people of his district, and of Baltimore itself. Dems always play the race card when they are unable to win with facts. Shame!
8. Have kids sooner
It’s not a debate. Life has zero meaning without children. Zero. It’s fine to make sure you’re ready in terms of resources and commitment, but don’t look for reasons to delay. You will not regret having children. And every year you put it off is one less year…
Charlie Munger’s formula for success is simple and perfect:
- Spend less than you earn
- Invest prudently
- Avoid toxic people and toxic activities
- Defer gratification
- Never stop learning
It’s all a lie.
Within hours of Navalny’s death, his “wife” was photo-opping with Kamala.
Meanwhile, when he was stuck in a Siberian jail, she had already dumped him for a toy boy lover…

DEI is coming for the hard sciences at Rice University, with a class called "Afrochemistry."
The class "will implement African American sensibilities to analyze chemistry... and inequities in chemistry and chemical education.”
Of course, "there is no final exam."
So Twitter was ~5x overstaffed & it’s now working (arguably) much better…
This happened at a publicly-traded tech company, accountable to shareholders.
Just imagine how overstaffed and inefficient the federal government (with an unlimited budget and accountable to no one) is?
Florida Gov. DeSantis stands accused of using the Covid-19 vaccine to reward powerful political supporters and developers by setting up pop-up vaccination sites in planned communities they developed and where Republican voters predominate.
3. Don’t wait for the perfect pitch
Real life is not baseball. There’s no free trip to first base, and you’re not limited to three strikes. Just keep swinging, and your “luck” will improve.
Another example from Chicago.
The FBI deployed hundreds of agents and millions of dollars, and aggressively used geolocation technology and social media surveillance to hunt down and charge more than 1,300 people who strolled mostly peacefully through the open Capitol doors on…
What we are seeing now is an inflection point in momentum with no catalyst to recede.
It's not just that the MAGA vibe is re-energized; the culture has shifted. The conviction and enthusiasm have expanded.
More and more people have woken up:
- The corporate media is…
The video dump makes
@AdamKinzinger
’s performance all the more award-worthy.
It would be comical, if not for the fact that people are rotting in jail, and some died.
Kinzinger should be in jail.

4. Settle down geographically
This also means, “see the world while you’re young and unattached.” I’ve lived in New York, London, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Houston - and I’m glad I did. But it’s important to settle down (around age 30) and establish a footprint of friends,…
6. Drinking isn't a fulfilling hobby
I loved drinking. It felt important professionally and was a personal hobby for years. But, alcohol is terrible for you, even in small quantities. It increases cortisol, which causes stress and anxiety, disrupts your sleep, destroys fitness…
The woman on the right shot & murdered the woman on the left over an argument in a grocery store parking lot, on Valentine’s Day, while her two little children were in the car. The media didn’t give it much coverage. Her name was Alexandria Borys, a wife & mom. Her life mattered.
Remember when Trump sent a floating hospital to NYC...
And instead of using it, and risking making Trump look good, Cuomo ordered COVID patients back to nursing homes to infect others and die...
And then he lied about it, and tried to cover it up.
This is indefensible evil.
The Trump “fraud” case - where he borrowed money from the most sophisticated banks in the world & paid it back with interest - is trending.
But not the revelation that Hunter took bribes from China & used Joe’s home address to receive the wires… while he was running for POTUS.
George Stephanopoulos attended the party Jeffrey Epstein hosted to celebrate getting out of jail for r*aping a child.
Katie Couric and Chelsea Handler were there too.
Stephanopoulos: "As a rape victim... how can you endorse Trump?"
Rep. Nancy Mace: "You're asking me a question about my political choices, trying to shame me as a rape victim. And I find it disgusting."

Mark Cuban hit one home run and cashed out. No shame in that.
But then what did he do?
- bought the toys
- put himself on TV
- bought 12 black guys to win a ring
- preach condescending sanctimony
Elon is trying to change the world & save free speech
They are not the same.
All of these military-age men were apprehended at our southern border TODAY.
Tonight, they were released into the United States without repercussion, and are calling home, saying, “Come. The border is open.”
Nothing good comes from this…
There’s a contest in DC to show support for Israel. That’s noble.
But don’t let them forget:
The drug cartels are state-sponsored, barbarian terrorists too.
Importing millions of military-age men, crime, human trafficking, and of course… killing 100,000 Americans annually…
Today we learned:
- There are no Russian secrets in Trump’s financial records (as previously reported)
- Trump is not using the Presidency to enrich himself (as previously reported)
- Trump pays more in taxes than Jeff Bezos
- We need to keep draining the swamp for tax reform
Could the outlook get any more bleak?
- Housing has never been more expensive
- Transportation has never been more expensive
- Food and energy have never been more expensive
- Credit card debt has never been higher
- Household savings have never been lower
- Health insurance has…
Bernie didn’t need a mask for his close encounter with an elderly, coughing dementia patient who had just touched, hugged, and kissed 500 other people.
Because science.
UNBELIEVABLE—SDNY Judge Lewis Kaplan who infamously dismissed Prince Andrew's s•xual assault claims made by one of Jeffery Epstein’s human tr•fficking victims—is the SAME judge that presided over E. Jean Carrol vs. Trump’s defamation case—as well as the now infamous SBF/FTX…
The Iowa Caucus is the biggest blowout in history by far.
Meanwhile, the Biden campaign has $117 million in cash.
Republicans have already wasted $250 million on a pointless primary.
It’s time to stop the charade and focus all resources on winning with Trump in November:

I hope they do something cool with the old CBOT pit... other than pickleball courts.
But in loving memory of old school Wall Street, here are my favorite floor trader hand signs, before HR and DEI.

If these credible sexual assault allegations were against DeSantis instead of Cuomo, how fast do you think Hillary, Kamala, and Warren would be publicly slamming him?
Instead... crickets.
This is what your $60 billion will be used for….
Conscripting middle-aged Ukrainian men by force.
And sending them to die.
With no plan or path to “victory.”
The Clinton Foundation raised millions for Haiti.
Only 2% ended up in Haiti. The rest was laundered, including $3 million for Chelsea Clinton’s wedding.

Doug Band (Clinton’s top aide) emailed John Podesta complaining about abuse of Foundation funds.
Big story that got missed in all the news yesterday.
Judge Mehta denied Peter Navarro's motion to remain free pending appeal.
He was sentenced to 4 months in prison for defying a congressional subpoena…
Just like Eric Holder and Hunter Biden did…
Two-tiered justice on…
This statement from Putin is undeniably true:
"In the United States, previous elections were falsified through postal voting. They bought ballots for $10, filled them out, and threw them into mailboxes without any supervision from observers."

Hunter Biden holed himself up in a suite at the Chateau Marmont hotel with a hooker named Yanna for 3 days, smoking crack and filming porn.
After an $8,000 wire to Emerald Fantasy Girls for another companion was rejected, Secret Service showed up, texting:

11. Look outside your social circle
In New York City, the emphasis for many is: What do you do? Where did you go to college? What does your Dad do? It took me a decade to learn that sitting in the back of a truck drinking beer in rural Texas with people of all races and classes…
Newly unemployed journalists:
You're not that important.
You don't need to live in Brooklyn.
You don't need espresso martinis and iced lattes.
Hit the road.
Go see America.
Talk to the people you sneer at.
And then maybe you'll write something that people want to read.
12. Read more
Reading allows you to borrow someone else’s brain, and have a conversation with the most consequential minds in history. It’s a learned skill that requires discipline: Make time for reading, preferably right before bed. Keep your phone in another room. Tap out on…
- gets jobs she isn’t qualified for
- moves up on the backs of other people’s hard work
- fast-tracked for promotion
- makes a career by stealing & espousing racism
- reaches top of her field because of identity
- can’t be fired
- any criticism is “racist”
This is privilege.
A simple way of framing the bias and pettiness of the NYT:
In the same article, they write “Ben Carson” and “Dr. Jill Biden.”
He grew up in poverty during the Civil Rights movement, graduated from Yale, and became a renowned brain surgeon.
She was Hunter’s babysitter and…

When I attended capital markets roadshow luncheons, I’d exchange business cards with C-suite executives, investment banking competitors, countless buy side portfolio managers, and research analysts. On my way out, I’d throw the stack of cards in the trash. Today, many…

The DOJ and FBI validated the Ashley Biden diary.
Joe Biden took "inappropriate showers" with his daughter, whom she blames for "sexualizing" her.
This is the sitting President of the United States. It should be the biggest story in the world.
13. Watch the sun rise
It’s self-explanatory; take an early morning walk: Fresh air, vitamin D, exercise, more productive days, quiet reflection, and much better sleep.
Mayor Pete wants more diversity in construction workers.
While he’s at it, can we get gender equality too:
