The SpaceX IPO Will Change the World... and Investing as We Know
It
By Kerry Lutz, Founder of the Financial Survival Network, Economist
Wall Street is completely unprepared for what
happens when SpaceX finally goes public. Most investors think a SpaceX IPO will
simply be another large technology offering. They couldn't be more wrong. This
will not be another IPO. It will be a financial singularity. For
nearly two decades, ordinary investors have watched from the sidelines while
private equity firms, venture capital funds, sovereign wealth funds, and
billionaire insiders accumulated massive positions in the most revolutionary
private company in history. The public got to buy the leftovers. SpaceX changes
that equation overnight. [more...]
The SpaceX IPO - Dystopian Morality Tale, or Inspiring Venture?
By Todd Sheets, Investment Banker, Economist, Author of 2008: What Really Happened
On a recent episode of The Daily podcast, The
New York Times (NYT) managed to subtlety twist the IPO (Initial Public
Offering) for SpaceX into something of a morality play. As if the whole thing
were a dystopian attempt by some kind of Billionaire Darth Vader to take over
the universe, with everything from the world's financial system to your
grandmother's IRA hanging in the balance. So, is the largest IPO in history
really just Billionaire Vader trying to convince us to fund his Evil Empire? Or
is this a story of American-style capitalism attracting the best and brightest
from around the world to unleash the infinite possibilities of human ingenuity?

AI - An Active Prediction Engine
By Martin Mawyer, President of Christian Action Network
For years, we've been told the great AI question is simple: Will
artificial intelligence take our jobs? That question is no longer theoretical.
Nary a day goes by without a scathing headline of a major corporation, or even
a small business, announcing layoffs and restructuring around the 'wonders' of
artificial intelligence. But how long before AI begins to monitor, control, and
condition people to obey its whims? According to one analysis, the goal is not
merely to review a person's past actions but to pursue something akin to the film
'Minority Report.' The objective? To forecast future risk by relentlessly
analyzing an individual's travel patterns, relationships, online behavior, and
daily habits. No longer is it enough to simply ask, 'What did this person do?'...
but 'What might this person become?' The algorithm becomes an
active prediction engine. [more...] Subscribe to Patriot Majority Report
Housing First is a Disaster - I Saw Sacramento's Homeless Chaos
Firsthand
By Michele Steeb, Homelessness Expert
Homelessness rose 40% in California after the state adopted a housing-only model with no sobriety or treatment requirements.
America's homelessness crisis is routinely framed as a
housing crisis. It is not. It is a crisis born from the collapse of
accountability at every level of the system. Nowhere are the consequences of
that collapse more visible than in California - and especially in its
capital city, Sacramento. If you live anywhere homelessness is exploding - HEED
THIS WARNING: What's happening to Sacramento's waterways is a direct result of
failed "housing first, treatment never" policies. [more...]
Government Seeks to Enlist Small Business Involved in Critical
Supply Chains
By Kenneth Rapoza, Reporter/Columnist for Coalition for a Prosperous America
The Small Business Administration (SBA) wants
to enlist domestic companies to help rebuild entire industrial
ecosystems lost to decades of corporate and DC-interests in services,
innovation, and IP instead of manufacturing. The U.S. is still great at
inventing things, but mass production of those inventions has migrated to Asia.
Within Asia, the bulk of it is all in China. In a new world where the rising
power (China) is challenging the old one (U.S.), offshoring key portions of
critical supply chains is an economic vulnerability. Like the rest of the
government, the SBA recognizes this vulnerability as a national security risk. [more...]
24 Hours on Capitol Hill to Save America
By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center
Only judicial accountability can end the judicial coup.
The David Horowitz Freedom Center has developed the Judicial
Accountability Project to break the stalemate and restore the
framework of a constitutional government. The idea began during a conversation
with former Rep. Louie Gohmert, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, at
the Freedom Center's event in Las Vegas last year. It lit a spark that led to
bigger things happening. We began building
profiles of judges and collecting information about judicial abuses; and even
more importantly, we were building a roadmap of constitutional options for
accountability. Our list included a judge who had lied about working for
Jeffrey Epstein and signed off on the Mar-a-Lago raid; a Pakistani judge who
had apologized to two attempted Trump assassins; along with more famous figures
like Judge Boasberg, who had signed off on the covert surveillance of members
of Congress, as well as judges guilty of conflicts of interest, abuse of AI to
fake precedents, partisan misconduct from the bench and other violations of
judicial codes. [more...]
Gun Safety - Violent Crime Drops as More Americans Pack Heat
By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime
A new survey of 1,000 general election voters conducted
last month by McLaughlin & Associates found that almost 30% of
respondents said they carry a firearm. These results show a 5.5% increase in
the number of respondents who said they carry firearms since a similar poll was
conducted in December 2024. The survey is
the latest evidence challenging claims linking firearms and violent crime. As
data show both the number of firearms and the percentage of people carrying
them is increasing, preliminary estimates show the U.S. murder rate is likely
to hit a record low in 2025 – at least 10% below the previous
record low. [more...]
