Nicole Shanahan had a great conversation with Senator Tuberville. Senator Tuberville is fully onboard with MAHA!
"From your perspective, how good are your AirPods for you?
The answer is: that depends if you’re a mouse that was bred in one of these idiotic protocols.
If you are a mouse, where do you get AirPods? You probably want AirPods, maybe more than one set.
If you’re not a mouse, then this is an indicator that it’s actually dangerous.
The fact that the mice live longer is not good news.
It’s bad news because a toxin that you will not tolerate well will function like chemotherapy, or in this case like radiation therapy does on a cancer patient."
Clipped from Episode 316, Bret and Heather discuss a new paper that finds infection tends to lead to greater frailty in older people. This reverses the causality of Terrain Theory of Disease (frailty of the body leads to greater susceptibility of infection), and also provides support for a prediction made by Bret and his co-author Debbie Ciszek in the unpublished, longer version of their reserve capacity paper from 2002.

"Do these truths about manta rays make them less beautiful to you? Have I stolen wonder from you by telling you some of what we know? Or rather, have I provided you even more basis on which to find more wonder, seek more beauty in the world? I hope that the latter is true."

How history repeats itself
Based on the image, (assuming you read it) what does the word “groupeur” sound like?
According to Nesta Webster in her book World Revolutions, a groupeur is someone who helps gather a crowd around a message—often by drawing attention to it in a way that appears natural or spontaneous. Their role is to amplify and focus public attention, turning passive observers into an engaged group.
The term “groupeur” appears in her account of the French Revolutionary period, particularly around the movement associated with Gracchus Babeuf (which I'm learning about)
I don’t know… but doesn’t that sound a bit familiar?
To me, it resembles Nick Fuentes and the Groypers—how they’re able to capture the frustration of everyday people and channel it in a particular direction.
(As an aside.. did anyone else notice how Nick Fuentes, and the groyper army.. used all their power to smash Tucker and Candace in the moments after Charlie Kirks death?)

The Origins of Jiang Xueqin
I find myself fascinated with Professor Jiang, who has been showing up in my X timeline and YouTube algorithm.
According to ChatGPT:
Jiang Xueqin is a Chinese educator and writer known for challenging traditional, exam-focused schooling. He advocates for a more holistic approach to education that emphasizes character, creativity, and personal growth. His work has gained attention for critiquing high-pressure academic systems, especially in China.

What appears to have pushed him into the spotlight are his predictions regarding Iran, often framed using game theory. Lately, he’s been appearing on larger platforms, including shows hosted by Jimmy Dore, Piers Morgan, and Kim Iversen.
I’ve been listening to more of his content and came across an episode titled “Dawn of the Human Imagination,” where he discusses Darwinian evolution.
