All:
I had this long email about recent observations and what I think it means for America's future, but this anecdote captures it all.
As most of you know, I work in cyber security. One of my tasks is to manage my organization's anti-phishing tools.
Recently, I got a request to block a domain by user because we flagged the email as spam. The domain is related to a big box store's marketing emails and services. One key service is order management and delivery. All these emails were being appropriately placed in this user's Junk folder. After telling him that's how email marked as spam is handled, he insisted I block all emails from this domain because their unsubscribe feature asked for too much information (email, name, last purchase, etc.). While it would annoy me, I'd just leave it going to my Junk folder, or create a local rule to delete all mail from said domain. Instead, the user continues to insist I apply a solution to the whole organization to take care of his annoyance.
Doesn't that capture the core problem in America today? Everyone wants a national solution for THEIR PROBLEM. I don't see how we overcome that insistence, especially among the Left and liberal Aunt Becky.
While I see DJT's grand vision, how can America recover when they can't ignore what annoys them and INSISTS on a national solution to fix it for them without considering other consequences?
Respectfully,

Police in Winona Minnesota are stunned after every single one of their Flock cameras were suddenly removed in a single night.
According to the police department, all 8 of the town's cameras were cut down and hauled away.
Police are asking for the public's help to identify the individual, but the public has been responding with comments such as:
"The Flock cameras tore themselves down"
"Whoever did it, was fishing with me"

US diesel crack surpasses $100 a barrel for the first time on supply disruptions
... and the supply of refined fuels is already nearly exhausted. A hard landing is visible ahead, for farmers, for trucking, and ... well, for everything that requires food (people) and energy (the entire economy).
These are very likely the final days of relative normalcy during which to prepare. Get ready.
🌾 🌍 🚜 JPMorgan warns a massive global food supply crisis could begin next year as fertilizer shortages tighten agricultural supply.
JPMorgan is the latest institutional research desk to warn that the next global food crisis may already be taking shape, driven by what its analysts describe as the "Five Ws": War, Weather, Warehousing, Water, and Waste.
In a new report titled Food Security Is National Security: A Compounding Storm, a team led by London-based senior global economist Nora Szentivanyi warned that disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz and the emergence of a potentially historic El Niño could weaken crop yields, constrain agricultural production, and keep food inflation elevated through the first half of 2027.
"Successive shocks since COVID have compounded, eroding food production capacity and keeping food price pressures elevated into 2027," Szentivanyi said, warning that "this is not a short-lived shock; it has reduced the likelihood of near-term disinflation, and the food ...
