The hero who disarmed one of the terrorists in Sydney turned out to be 43-year-old Ahmed al-Ahmed — a fruit shop owner and father of two.

He was shot twice and is currently in hospital. He is scheduled to undergo surgery.

He had no experience with weapons of any kind.

If someone could point to reasons why this video's concerns are overblown, they would be welcome.

Tyson’s Lexington gutted: tariffs, cattle. #econsky
Tyson is shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant in January 2026. That’s 3,200 workers gone in one shot, the largest plant shutdown in company history.

Blame Trump’s tariff chaos and the lowest cattle inventories in decades. Tariffs jack up costs. Supply shrinks. Plants close. Towns hollow out.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

It's important to know how the world sees our leader and by extension us as Americans...

Here is one take from a German magazine Der Spiegel.

I can't say I disagree.

No state is taking away federal tax cuts, despite what Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says.

Some states are choosing not to mirror recent federal changes into their own tax codes, which is a normal process.

Bessent’s claims are wildly misleading.

No, Scott Bessent: States Aren’t Taking Away Anyone’s Tax Cuts
It’s wildly inappropriate for a U.S. Treasury Secretary to lean on states to adopt or not adopt specific federal provisions in their own state tax codes.

Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left.

And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil

The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.

The final paragraph of this statement is FASCINATING.

Dem leadership is clearly trying to imply, in pretty strong terms, that they'll launch an aggressive, vigorous, public impeachment effort if they take back control of the House. But without actually, you know, saying that.

Drip. Drip. Drip.
Significant statement from Jeffries and House Democratic leaders saying they will vote “present” on the motion to table Al Green’s resolution to impeach President Trump. They say they’re “laser-focused on fighting to lower the high cost of living” plus on health care and corruption.

Reminder that one way to move a Democracy towards a dictatorship is bankruptcy. And Trump has experience in bankruptcies (6)!

It looks as though this administration is taking tips from the Kremlin to make this happen.

Further hurting our fiscal positioning as a country.

Is this Administration trying to bankrupt the country like his casino?

Also, how do you bankrupt a casino?!

This guy really doesn't understand Macroeconomic basics. Someone get Bessent to cover for him, it's too painful.
It’s going to be fun on TV to ask economists about 25% GDP growth. 🤡
