Europe continues to skimp on defence spending while allowing welfare states to get more bloated. The cumulative underspend since 2010 alone is close to $8 trillion. Why should American taxpayers fund European benefits? On this, Trump is dead right https://t.co/hdloZuzlQF 34.6K views · 930 likes · 178 reposts · 98 replies Open on X →

Already 100 pages into The Cauldron, frankly difficult to put down. Pungent language, breathtaking pace and remarkable breadth of analysis. Congratulations @simonmontefiore 41.5K views · 608 likes · 45 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

Unsure which bit of the column you disagree with @afneil. My point is the white working class has indeed been shafted - by DEI which put race above merit but also by nepotism/cronyism in media, law, etc which shuts out working class kids.
