That’s bush league. The pro move is to expose SAM’s well-hidden funding sources. It’s searchable public information, but their's is clearly well-disguised. I searched and reviewed SAM's IRS Form 990 years ago, and was surprised how little is actually being disclosed…a clear violation of non-profit tax rules. I’d almost guarantee that SAM is violating PAC / non-profit funding disclosure rules, otherwise their entire budget would be listed annually in their IRS Form 990...the required tax returns for non-profits, but it is clearly obfuscated. Lastly, any organjzation that would have that corrupt POS, Patrick Kennedy, on their board is clearly no good.

The Department of Homeland Security fast-tracked a contract worth almost $1 billion to a company led by a donor to a pro-Trump nonprofit group where one of the officials overseeing the deal previously worked, according to records reviewed by The Washington Post. That donor, William Walters, leads another company that received a separate $140 million contract from DHS to purchase six Boeing 737 planes to use for deportations, The Post reported last week. The larger contract involves a DHS program called Project Homecoming that offers cash bonuses, free flights and a “concierge service” at airports for departing migrants. The program arose from an executive order on the first day of President Donald Trump’s second term directing DHS to develop policies to encourage immigrants to leave the country voluntarily, a process the administration calls “self-deportation.” The agency said nonpartisan professionals control its contracting decisions. But in the case of the Project Homecoming contract, political appointees coordinated the process, emails obtained by The Post show. That contract went to an Arlington-based company called Salus Worldwide Solutions, according to an official with direct knowledge of the matter. The company was incorporated in June 2023. Its website describes experience coordinating international travel, disaster aid and secure facilities. Salus had never received a federal contract before, according to government spending records. It served as a subcontractor on two State Department contracts, according to a lawsuit challenging the Project Homecoming contract. Walters, the company’s CEO, was a donor to the America First Policy Institute, according to government documentation reviewed by The Post. AFPI does not publicly disclose its donors. The nonprofit recognized Walters as one of three recipients of a “Patriot Award” at its annual gala in November 2024. Walters also gave $10,000 in October 2024 to American Resolve, a super PAC run by allies of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi L. Noem that supported Trump in the presidential election, according to federal campaign finance data. Representatives for the PAC did not respond to an inquiry from The Post. The other company led by Walters, Daedalus Aviation, was incorporated in February 2024. The process leading to that contract was not immediately clear. Federal law prohibits government contractors from contributing to campaigns or political committees. But Walters and his company were not contractors at the time, and the ban does not extend to nonprofit groups. Walters declined to comment through a lawyer, citing ongoing litigation. The Project Homecoming contract is being challenged by a company that alleges it didn’t get a fair chance to compete. In an unsigned statement sent from DHS’s general press mailbox in response to questions from The Post, the agency said that its contracts “are subject to applicable federal procurement laws and oversight, which ensure transparency, competition, and the prudent use of taxpayer funds.” The agency declined to answer specific questions because of the lawsuit challenging the contract. The DHS general counsel’s office said protests of large contracts are common. The office said it reviewed Salus’s interactions with the agency and communications about the Project Homecoming contract and found no legal violations. “There is zero indication that there was any wrongdoing on anyone’s part,” the statement said. Federal contracts are highly regulated to prevent political appointees from using taxpayer money to reward supporters. Ordinarily, federal business opportunities go through a public process of soliciting bids, and the companies that compete for them are usually specialized and experienced. DHS’s statement said “all aspects” of its contracting decisions are “controlled” by career professionals in its procurement office. But according to the lawsuit from the competing company that is challenging the award, as well as an official familiar with the process, DHS officials shared nonpublic information with Salus to help prepare its bid, prompting an investigation by agency lawyers. The company referenced evidence that is under a court-ordered seal. The investigation, which the lawsuit said began in April, found that DHS employees exchanged at least 40 emails with Salus between February and April to discuss the contract, including budget and program specifications. The investigation determined that Salus had an unfair advantage in helping to design the contract it bid on, the competing company said in a Dec. 2 court filing that cited evidence under seal. In an email to The Post, a lawyer for Salus denied that the company received “inside” information. After the investigation, DHS officials decided to change course and conduct an abbreviated competition, with a preselected pool of applicants and a three-day turnaround, according to the court filing and internal communications obtained by The Post. “We are NOT pursuing the ‘intent to sole source’ this contracting activity,” senior DHS official Karen Evans said in a May 8 email to other officials, using a technical term for a noncompetitive process. Evans did not respond to phone calls from The Post. The records show that a DHS official who previously worked at the America First Policy Institute — Rob Law, serving as undersecretary for policy — helped coordinate the competition. An email obtained by The Post from DHS Chief Procurement Officer Paul Courtney states: “Rob Law is leading this effort for the front office,” using a term for the agency’s political leadership. Courtney did not respond to phone calls. In its statement, DHS denied Law’s involvement. “DHS follows strict ethics and recusal protocols, and there was no role for Mr. Law in this procurement action,” the agency said. The process around the Project Homecoming contract adds to a series of spending decisions by Noem and her top adviser, former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, that congressional Democrats have questioned. The agency awarded a $77 million advertising contract to a company that previously worked with Lewandowski, and $143 million to a Delaware corporation that in turn hired a company run by the husband of Noem’s spokeswoman, Tricia McLaughlin, according to ProPublica. A DHS spokesperson said the agency didn’t choose the subcontractor. Additionally, DHS spent $200 million on two Gulfstream private jets for Noem’s use; the Coast Guard said the jets are not “a perk or luxury — it’s a national security asset.” It is unclear whether Noem approved the fast-track process for Project Homecoming. Officials prepared a memo to notify her about the process, according to communications reviewed by The Post, but the records do not include a response. DHS officials met with a small number of preselected vendors, according to the lawsuit. One other company heard about the opportunity and asked to participate, the lawsuit alleges. Six preselected companies received documentation needed to prepare their proposals on a Friday in mid-May, with a deadline of 10 a.m. the following Monday. The lawsuit was filed in August by CSI Aviation, which had previously worked for DHS operating deportation flights. The suit says CSI contacted DHS asking to participate in the bidding process but never received a response. After Salus was selected, CSI sued, alleging that the agency allowed only “hand-picked” vendors to compete on an “impossibly short” deadline. The government and Salus filed responses under seal on Dec. 9.

During the election it was a super PAC

1_FCKTRD

In 2024, Trulieve Industries donated approximately $145 million to the "Smart & Safe Florida" political action committee in support of Amendment 3. The other major players in the industry accounted for only 6.3% ($9,162,706). They also have a vested interest in the state because they currently own and operate 203 stores there. Green Thumb contributed a total of $2,259,470. Verano contributed a total of $3.5 million. Cresco contributed a total of $403,236. Curaleaf contributed a total of $3 million. As of late November 2025, the Smart & Safe Florida PAC had collected approximately $25.8 million in contributions for the 2026 campaign. Over 90% of this total came from Trulieve. Don't wait until the day of the election to get involved, like you did last year. Donate your equal share to help get this across the finish line.

Alex Bores is an insane guy. Master's in computer science at Georgia Tech. Worked as an engineer at Palantir and has two software patents. But he quit the game and is now pushing for AI regulation. >The RAISE Act would require large AI companies to publish safety and risk protocols and disclose serious safety incidents. >It applies to companies that have spent more than $100 million in computational resources to train advanced models. >A bipartisan super PAC called Leading the Future announced last week that it will target Alex Bores, a Democratic congressional candidate who has openly championed AI safety legislation in New York by promoting the the Responsible AI Safety and Education, or RAISE, Act. The bill would require large AI companies to publish safety and risk protocols and disclose serious safety incidents. With how well spoken he is, he probably left behind a ton of earnings potential.

A White House official described the rescheduling process as ongoing and said that “all policy and legal requirements and implications are being considered.” Cannabis industry sources said investor optimism partly centers on Trump’s chief of staff, Susie Wiles...She is described by multiple sources in the cannabis industry as a close friend of Trulieve CEO Kim Rivers. According to the Florida Division of Elections, Trulieve spent more than $100 million supporting a failed ballot measure to legalize recreational cannabis for adults 21 and older. The company reportedly played a key role in securing Trump’s[ backing](https://smartsafeflorida.cmail20.com/t/y-l-mdjjkdl-hlkrhtkduu-y/) for the [initiative](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-says-will-vote-yes-florida-ballot-measure-legalize-marijuana-rcna170197). For the presidential race, according to Federal Election Commission filings, Trulieve donated $750,000 to Trump’s inauguration committee and another $250,000 to his MAGA Inc. super PAC. Rivers attended two pre-inauguration events, including a dinner for Vice President JD Vance, and reportedly joined a $1 million-a-plate fundraiser at Trump’s New Jersey golf club in August, where she urged him to reclassify marijuana, the Wall Street Journal[ reported](https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-marijuana-federal-drug-classification-01a73b8c?gaa_at=eafs&gaa_n=AWEtsqcGhNuPnaYkCYaFAvnEDjLa_eAEGuqP2EW9Jce3OFFN_fGuI20b2E-O&gaa_ts=68f92074&gaa_sig=J0i8GTnzuJdpcmmfD_ihrSEv4j1LTSvGXdRjN-lLt3kDBqgshL6n7NpOCbGmcpzL9Bs8G5irc_zCwidhnMQeOQ%3D%3D).

Agreed ,Or be diversified on the way up, I started in construction, then property management, then property ownership. At the same time I was investing in the stock market and learning along the way, I opened my first investment account at Paine Webber in 1978. I'm now in my 60's , put 3 daughters into college, 2 in there senior years, and my middle daughter, well, she's a glutton for punishment, after graduating from a PAC 10 University in 2023, she was just accepted by Pepperdine's Masters Program.

You're not wrong. I've made plenty dumb mistakes in the market and it seems the only choices I've made that have been profitable are the ones others have made too. With companies that put more money in the pockets of super rich men (Musk, Ellison, etc) who then put more money in the hands of right wing and pro-Israel PAC's. I'm done. Money comes and goes, and I'm OK with investing in something that aligns with a future I believe in. Any advice anyone? I need it because I'm dumb 😆

>Trump is only in this for quid pro quo... so unless there are cannabis operators literally lining his pocket, why would he upset his evangelical base? They have done that - I can't post MM articles but go on marijuana moment's website and read the article: Marijuana Industry Political Committee Donated $1 Million To Trump’s PAC, New FEC Filings Show Not only did the top MSOs donate $1M to trump but Kim Rivers attended a $1M dollar plate dinner with Trump So pockets are being lined with Trump. Whether you think that's big enough is another discussion

I don't see this happening, but if you think that's where things are going you look at airports (OMAB, ASR, PAC etc), you look at rails (Groupo Mexico w/their stake in Ferromex, CP), you buy Wal Mart de Mexico SAB, you look at industrial REITs in Mexico (FIBRA Prologis, etc.) Again, I don't see this happening (at least to a signifcant degree), but if you really thought this was going to happen to a signficant degree, logistics is certainly an area I'd be looking at.

Another post about some horrible act that our government is inflicting on us, I got it, it is bad. But, nobody is saying what is the remedy.  Every post like this should be followed by 3 things a citizen can do to alleviate the situation above.  Hitting the like button or up arrow is absolutely the least anyone can do, and it is ineffective in stopping the nonsense that is happening to our democracy.  If you read a post like this, your comment should be: Donate to this group or PAC.  They are promoting candidates in republican states that can win their election. Donate to anti-gerrymandering funds or groups.  Donate to the DNC or Act Blue.  Donate to legal defense fund XYZ, they are funding the lawyers that are litigating against the policies of 2025 and this administration.  Hitting the like button or echoing that these are Nazis/racists/mysogynist/homophobes/xenophobic is useless.

He would be going against the HHS and the OLC by extension, not to mention going against all of the MSOs who donated considerably to his PAC. I'm not saying that this would be impossible, but it would be downright moronic and frankly stupid, even by his standards. If he didn't wanted to do any of this, stall tactics would have been the only viable way I could see him saving face.

Trump has soft launched schedule 3 weeks ago on social media. 1. He used his MAGA muppets to bringing up rescheduling weeks ago to gauge reaction. 2. Used them to recommend rescheduling. 3. GuntherEagleman X account released an unaired campaign ad made by the MAGA super PAC encouraging rescheduling. 4. Mentions the intention to reschedule Cannabis at a dinner and to the Scott's CEO as a means of again gauging interest. Project 2025 doesn't mention Cannabis at all. It isn't because it's a contentious issue either, as abortion is brought up in it amongst other things. Terry Cole is brought up as a staunch prohibitionist. In reality his opinions on Cannabis will be whatever Trump tells him they are. Trump is an autocrat and learned to value absolute loyalty above else else from his first term. Pragmatically Cole will go after drugs that kill people as opposed to Cannabis. Rescheduling doesn't open up any new markets anyways - it just frees existing ones in states that allow it. This is an 80/20 issue. An easy win leading into the midterms for a president with a low approval rating.

Then there’s Trump’s personal views. While Trump’s public posture on marijuana use has softened in recent years, he remains a known teetotaler whose opinions on drug use were dramatically shaped by his late brother’s alcohol addiction. In remarks captured on video in 2018, Trump shared other – unproven – concerns about the drug. “In Colorado, they have more accidents,” Trump said in the video. “It does cause an I.Q. problem.” Proponents of a change have been publicly and privately urging Trump to commit to rescheduling marijuana, arguing it would open research opportunities, create jobs and give clarity to millions of patients in states that have legalized medicinal marijuana, including many veterans. In April, CNN reported that a group backed by the cannabis industry, American Rights and Reform PAC, aired pro-marijuana ads specifically targeting Trump’s TVs at the White House and Mar-a-Lago. The PAC also donated $1 million in March to MAGA, Inc., a Trump aligned super PAC, recent FEC records show. In 2024, the marijuana company Trulieve and the US Cannabis Council contributed a combined $1 million to Trump’s inauguration. Other influential voices have urged action as well. Podcaster Joe Rogan, a key supporter during the presidential campaign, reiterated his call to legalize marijuana on his show last month. And Alex Bruesewitz, the Gen Z Trump adviser who spearheaded the Republican’s courtship of young men last year, has also taken to social media lately to urge for a policy change on marijuana, suggesting it has widespread support. He called rescheduling marijuana a “no brainer.” Nearly 60% of Americans support legalization of recreational marijuana against just 11% of people who think it shouldn’t be legal for any purpose, according to a 2024 Pew Research Center survey. Recent polls suggest the president is at risk of losing support among young men as Rogan and other “manosphere” influencers grow disenchanted by Trump’s return to Washington. A high-profile change in marijuana policy could provide an avenue to win them back. In a memo reported by CNN earlier this year, top Trump pollster Tony Fabrizio and his partners wrote that changing marijuana policy was “an easy way to attract the voters needed to win in 2026, particularly young voters.”

Over a recent dinner at his private Bedminster, New Jersey, club, as President Donald Trump recounted his move against the country’s top economic statistician and riffed on New York City politics, the conversation turned to a politically potent issue still in flux: loosening federal restrictions on marijuana. “We need to look at that,” Trump acknowledged to the small gathering of donors, according to two people in attendance. “That’s something we’re going to look at.” Nearly a year ago, Trump suggested his return to the White House would usher in a new era for marijuana, one that would make it easier for adults to access safe products and give states greater leeway to pursue legalization. He signaled support for removing marijuana from the same legal category as dangerous narcotics like heroin. The pronouncement set him apart from many of his Republican predecessors and came as Trump courted younger Americans, minority groups and libertarian-leaning voters. But seven months into his second term, Trump’s inaction so far on marijuana remains a notable unkept commitment by a president who has acted swiftly on other campaign pledges. Behind the scenes, the issue has exposed sharp fault lines within Trump’s team. Trump’s top political advisers, who have led an aggressive push to check off campaign promises, have urged action, according to two people familiar with the internal discussions. They have argued that such a move could help bolster Republican support ahead of the midterm elections. Other policy advisers, though, remain wary, cautioning that the moral and legal ramifications of loosening marijuana restrictions could outweigh the potential gains and even backfire politically . In a statement to CNN, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said that when it comes to marijuana, “all policy and legal requirements and implications are being considered.” “The only interest guiding the president’s policy decision is what is in the best interest of the American people,” she said. Intensifying deliberations are happening as mixed signals are being telegraphed publicly on what Trump might do next. Scotts Miracle-Gro CEO James Hagedorn told Fox Business last week that Trump has privately assured him and others “multiple times” that he plans to reclassify marijuana to a less controlled category of substances. The 157-year-old lawn and garden giant has become a leader in the nascent cannabis industry, with a fast-growing hydroponics business that Federal Election Commission records show donated $500,000 to a Trump-aligned super PAC last year. But reforming marijuana policy was noticeably absent from the top objectives recently published by Trump’s newly installed head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, Terrance Cole. Hagedorn said Cole’s recent cannabis snub wasn’t surprising coming from a “career law enforcement guy.” “I think what (Cole) needs to hear is a call from the president or the chief of staff saying, ‘This is a promise he made during the campaign, and promises made are promises kept, ‘” he told Fox Business. That “promise” from Trump, as Hagedorn cast it, arrived in a social media message last year during the closing months of his presidential campaign, when he was aggressively pushing to expand his coalition beyond traditional GOP voters. Writing on Truth Social in September, Trump announced he intended to vote for a ballot measure to legalize recreational marijuana in his home state of Florida. Trump then added that, as president, he would “continue to focus on research to unlock the medical uses of marijuana to a Schedule 3 drug.” Marijuana is currently classified as a Schedule 1 drug – the federal category for illicit substances with “no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse.” Moving it to Schedule 3, which the DEA defines as “drugs with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence,” is something Trump has said he supports. “As I have previously stated, I believe it is time to end needless arrests and incarcerations of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use,” Trump also wrote in the post. He even discussed the topic with Joseph Edgar Foreman, the pro-pot rapper better known as Afroman, when the two both appeared last summer at the Libertarian Party Convention in Washington, DC. For a time, it seemed change could come before the 2024 election. In 2022, President Joe Biden ordered the departments of Justice and Health and Human Services to review whether marijuana should be reclassified. The next year, HHS recommended moving marijuana to Schedule 3 and in 2024 the Department of Justice initiated a new rule to codify the proposal. Biden called the move “monumental” and a “major step.” But momentum stalled and Biden left office before the rule could be finalized. A hearing the DEA scheduled for the day after Trump took office was canceled and hasn’t been rescheduled. In her statement, Jackson, the White House spokeswoman, noted that the current administration is still contending with the process initiated under Biden. One White House official suggested that executive action is unlikely until that is settled. The DEA did not respond to questions from CNN. Trump’s remarks at the recent Bedminster donor dinner underscore the expectation that the president, not anyone else, will ultimately decide whether to overhaul decades of marijuana policy in the United States. Privately, the White House has spent months researching whether and how to move ahead. Chief of Staff Susie Wiles requested affected agencies to weigh in and their responses, compiled by Trump’s Domestic Policy Council, now sit in a report on her desk, two people with knowledge of the report told CNN. One issue raised in ongoing deliberations is whether reclassifying marijuana would undermine law enforcement’s ability to use the smell of marijuana as probable cause for stops and searches, one of the people said. For Trump, whose tough-on-crime platform has emphasized empowering police to pursue drug offenders, that concern could emerge as a flashpoint.

The boglehead mindset is that no one can predict the future so there is no point in guessing about which company will do better or worse than the priced-in expectations of their individual stocks. The moral/ethical side might be an amusing path to take, but I don't think we know enough to make that call. I'd guess \_all\_ of the technology companies are getting under-the-table money from government intelligence agencies (and maybe more than one government) for surveillance on citizens and who knows how many are in the weapons business. And most of the bigger companies probably contribute to political PAC's that I disagree with. Not much left.

I could see a scenario where employers push employees to allocate some or all of their 401ks to a company controlled fund that they use to get themselves better deals. When I was at a defense contractor, they pressured us to conribute a portion of our paychecks to a PAC they used for lobbyists to try to win contracts. I could see "You give us 20% off our costs, and I'll have our 401k fund buy $10M of corporate bonds from you".

Cannabis PAC donated a mill to a MAGA PAC

volckerwasright

"A marijuana industry-funded political committee donated $1 million to President Donald Trump’s MAGA Inc. super PAC in the first half of this year, according to newly published Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings. The American Rights and Reform PAC, which launched in 2023 under a different name, Legalize America, took in money from multiple cannabis companies to support its work, which included ads released in May that attacked former President Joe Biden’s marijuana policy record in an apparent attempt to push Trump to go further on the issue. But beyond the ads, the cannabis PAC separately contributed $1 million to MAGA Inc., describing it as a “donation,” the FEC documents show." published <2 min ago

Fair but Musk is more like a founder rather than someone who climbed the corporate ladder to leadership. Luck very much played a part in Musk’s success but there’s something to be said for his stubbornness as well. I wish I had his will to do whatever he sets his mind too albeit, I would hope I wouldn’t waste time with nonsense like this. My money’s on him putting together a PAC rather than a new party in the long run but who knows.

He is creating a PAC. the party will never materialize. On one hand he says it is for the moderates but then the party says they are for sound fiscal conservative policy. so it is both the Tea Party and a Moderate party. nonsense.

Ad hominem attack followed by absolute gibberish. So I am an antisemite because I don’t support Americans dying and laying for another foreign country’s security, which happens to be predominantly Jewish? What’s next I am racist because I don’t support American involvement in Rwanda’s civil war? Egypt’s ruling class wants to make peace with Israel, the population doesn’t. We have been paying off these dictators and monarchs to make peace with Israel on our dime since Israel’s creation. Most of our billionaire class happens to be Jewish, and based on your logic criticizing them would also make you an antisemite, which would be ludicrous. I will give you credit that the social contract is broken and we need to take our country back. The enemy isn’t China, or Middle East or Russia, it’s homegrown elites who have robbed - and continue to rob - the country blind. The low hanging fruit is a foreign country’s PAC which has infiltrated our political system to put politicians in power that don’t have America’s interest at heart. Let’s start there….

Quick take #3 is off by....ALOT All defense industries have a PAC that employees are "encouraged" to contribute to with direct debit from paychecks, funds are distributed based on what is best for the company. At the end of the year the company will gift a charity of your choice in the same amount(maybe double?)your political PAC contributions Its worded differently, each tier of political participation has a donation gift to the charity of your choice, plus other gifts given to all participants(shirts, backpacks, etc etc)

"The rapid relationship repair..." What repair? This is what the market and media is blissfully inventing. Trump has made it clear he is not talking to Elon. He said it was "*nice*" that Elon is now backtracking his drug-fueled posts. Has anyone ever seen Trump to be a "let bygones be bygones" person? Hell no. Watch the old 1992 interview of him talking about how much he likes to get revenge on people that betray him and loyalty. Elon's public betrayal of Trump will not go unpunished. Elon is either going to have to pony up another \~$100M to Trump's super PAC or face consequences. The cult-of-Elon believes he is all powerful. Trump is the POTUS. And one that likes to stretch the rules as far as possible. He has the whole GOP in his pocket. All of Elon's companies depend heavily on government contracts, regulatory approvals, and subsidies. Furthermore, Elon's tangled web of businesses and finances are all being leveraged to prop up the whole house of cards. If Tesla shares struggle, that directly impacts Elon's ability to use it as collateral for financing his widespread efforts. For example, if the GOP decides to get rid of carbon offset credits Tesla sells to other ICE automakers, they become a company that operates deep in the red (\~30% of their total revenue). Forget the paltry EV credit that is already going bye bye. Trump could crush Elon with one move. The reverse is not true. And he might just do that to prove that he can...

For what its worth, I still think OMAB is cheap. They just barely passed their pre Mexican government scare price from late 2023. They still have that negotiation pending, which was a huge catalyst for PAC. Plus, Monterrey is on the cusp of a lot of growth. All that at 14x forward earnings (which are probably understating the business), a gigantic moat, 3-4% dividends.....

TheHiveMindSpeaketh

Trimming my top positions ($TTWO, $PAC, $OMAB) for the first time in a while as valuations have gone from very attractive to reasonable. Shifting the cash to some more speculative positions in $SKYH and $PERF. Also still researching $YOU

# Voyager Announces Launch of Initial Public Offering 🚀🚀🚀 [https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250602519043/en/Voyager-Announces-Launch-of-Initial-Public-Offering](https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250602519043/en/Voyager-Announces-Launch-of-Initial-Public-Offering) # Meanwhile ... The Golden Dome Missile Defense System The Golden Dome is a proposed multi-layer missile defense system for the United States, outlined in an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on January 27, 2025. It aims to counter ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles using a global constellation of satellites with sensors and space-based interceptors. Key points include: * **Scope**: Defends against diverse threats, including missiles launched from space, with components like the Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS) layer and proliferated space-based interceptors. * **Timeline and Cost**: Trump announced a $175 billion project, aiming for completion within three years (by 2028), with a $25 billion down payment included in a Republican spending bill. * **Contractors**: Defense contractors like SpaceX, Lockheed Martin, Palantir, and others are vying for involvement, with Lockheed Martin leveraging existing systems like NGI and PAC-3. * **Challenges**: Critics question the feasibility of the timeline, the high cost (potentially trillions over 20 years), and efficiency due to the rapid orbits of space-based interceptors. 1. Contract Opportunities * **Solid-Propulsion Subsystems**: Voyager is noted as a subcontractor to Lockheed Martin, providing solid-propulsion subsystems for the Next Generation Interceptor (NGI), a key component of the Missile Defense Agency’s Ground-based Midcourse Defense system, which may integrate with Golden Dome. * **Edge Computing Systems**: Voyager’s collaboration with Palantir on edge computing systems positions it to support the data-intensive command and control infrastructure of Golden Dome, which requires real-time threat detection and battle management across regions. * **Impact on IPO**: Securing contracts for Golden Dome could increase Voyager’s revenue projections, making it more attractive to investors during an IPO by demonstrating growth potential and government backing. Conclusion IMO the Golden Dome missile defense system could boost Voyager’s activities by providing contract opportunities in propulsion and edge computing, aligning with the program’s need for advanced interceptors and data management. 🚀🚀🚀

For me personally, I had the pro-Mexico nearshoring thesis first and then found PAC and OMAB as outstanding businesses that were also exposed to that thesis. I've been aware of CAAP but never understood the Argentinean economic/political situation enough to buy in. But if I liked the country macro setup I'd look at the airports as a great business

MitchCurry

I actually haven't heard of that one. I've heard of PAC but never did any research. OMAB is the only one I've put effort into (so far).

TheHiveMindSpeaketh

$PAC and $OMAB closed at ATHs. Airport gang stays winning

Skysky1208

POTUS is only reconcilable to Elon because he's expecting a 100 million dollar check into his PAC. And it's not a good look to turn pension funds into the negative because Tesla is in all those funds. Tesla at this point is almost too big to fail because of all the indexes it is in. So make no mistake, Tesla is worth something, how much at the market algo dumps is up to Elon himself.

erc80

The whole elected apparatus of the GoP and its adjacent think tank and PAC groups need to go as well. Cull it all.

Ricky_Ventura

Still has to be open to bid.  The real answer is that Thiel has funded Vance's entire career and owns a PAC

creemeeseason

I'm partial to airports, OMAB (I own), PAC, and ASR are the Mexican names. CAAP is mostly South America. There are a few others. Absolutely great businesses, with large moats and lots of recurring revenue. Aerospace is another great niche, it sort of gets lumped in with defense since many companies do both.

SLType1

How much did Nippon Steel contribute to his PAC. Grifters all.

In 2005, Charles Kushner was sentenced to two years in a federal prison in Alabama on multiple charges, including tax fraud and witness tampering. He admitted at the time to having hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, who was cooperating in a federal investigation into campaign financing. Fifteen years later, Trump granted him a full pardon in the final month of his presidency. Kushner expressed his gratitude by donating $1 million in 2023 to Trump’s Make America Great Again Inc. super PAC. Now, with the Senate’s confirmation on 19 May, the father of Trump’s son-in-law is taking on one of the US most visible diplomatic roles.

What about X-PAC Talks?

This is from an anti-renewable PAC, but it does a good job representing the proposed changes in a chart. https://www.instituteforenergyresearch.org/regulation/house-proposed-bill-does-not-go-far-enough-in-undoing-ira-tax-credits/

Does Qatar own virtually every US politician? Is there a PAC that’s exclusively there to encourage politicians to protect Qatar’s interests above our own?

creemeeseason

OMAB is Mexican and they specifically give you exposure to Monterrey which is central to Mexican manufacturing. They have almost no exposure to Mexican tourism (ASUR owns Cancun and PAC owns a few Pacific resort airports). CAAP is mostly South America, specifically Argentina but also a few others. So very different plays, in theory. What's your fair value on CAAP?

The_Vee_

Walmart Inc. PAC donated more to Republicans than Democrats in the 2023-2024 election cycle, so I can't feel too badly for Walmart.

Signal_Membership268

The Walton family must not contributed as much to Trump’s PAC as he expected.

7fingersDeep

TSLA is not a car, tech, AI, or robotics company. It's a Political Action Committee - you're buying into a PAC. That's why it's booming. Technicals and fundamentals don't matter when the company can get bailed out of any problem by POTUS. Don't hate the player or the game- just figure out how to get the tendies.

Rocknbob69

There goes their Big Pharma PAC money

sadcringe

yo are you me? I was at the ER too for my heart! I have PAC. 5% burden. Lifestyle (I’m 20 pounds overweight and smoke and drink too much) So I’m back to cycling, dieting, solely drinking on Friday and Saturday and lowering my nicotine

Gunfighter9

Just a reminder, it was the GOP that wrote the law that forbids the government from negotiating prices with drug manufacturers for Medicare Part D. And Rep Billy Tauzin left congress after the bill was passed and took a 2 million dollar a year job with PhRMA, the drug manufacturers lobbying firm. PhRMA donated $1 million to Trump's 2025 inaugural fund but did not give to his campaign, according to OpenSecrets. It is registered with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) as a "Trade Association PAC." They already said that they are going to challenge this in court. So the lawyers for the drug companies against the lawyers that still work for the feds? Lotsa luck Don

Fuzzy_Judgment63

"For many years the world wondered",....TOTAL BS!! We all know it's corporate greed and maximized profitability for shareholders over all else that drive high drug prices in the USA. We've known this for decades. Congress never was able to do much due to Big Pharma's PAC bribery & payoffs.

Sturdily5092

Small business typically vote Republican and their NFIB PAC made a big push especially last year to vote for Trump and his cronies in Congress. They are anti-regulations, anti-worker's rights and pro-bailouts at the cost of the consumer. So fckm, they should totally get the full impact of the consequences for their choices.

Crowbar_Faith

I’m going to deconstruct his brain droppings of a tweet here. Also, someone should tell him that adults don’t text in ALL CAPS randomly.  - “For years the world has wondered why pharmaceutical drugs in America are so much more expensive.” I’d say most other countries, and intelligent people in the US have known exactly why. While other countries adopted universal healthcare, with their taxes going towards helping their citizens with healthcare costs, the US took the route of greed where it was made into a private business. And everytime votes and bills came up to change it, pharmaceutical companies through money at politicians, who happily accepted it and voted to keep the higher prices. - “It was always very difficult to explain.” No it wasn’t. Greed and corruption masquerading as free market and “choice” is the answer.  - “Campaign contributes do wonders but not with me and the Republican Party.” You can easily see that anytime a bill has come up to reduce the price of drugs, ban lobbying (aka legal bribery) or adopt a system like universal healthcare, Republicans overwhelmingly voted it down, and also overwhelmingly got PAC money from said pharmaceutical companies. What an odd coincidence.

Minute-Individual-74

I don't even think Trump believes this is a good idea anymore. I think Trump is more concerned about his ego and the perception that he's smart than actually being smart. So now that it's painfully obvious this was a bad move, he's pretending he did something smart that's why he's cutting the tariffs. All the while, every single Republican politician was too scared to speak out about the tariffs bc they are too scared of being primaried thanks to our insanely corrupt campaign finance laws that allow unlimited money from billionaires like Elon Musk and corrupt PAC like AIPAC to steal our elections. So really, I don't think anyone in the federal government thinks this is good anymore. They're just all selfish fucking pussies.

Also, OMAB is still negotiating its contract extension. PAC already did theirs and it was good.

TheHiveMindSpeaketh

Pretty sure that's a new ATH at open for $OMAB, following on the heels of $PAC. More signs of permanent tariffs around the world is a long term benefit for Mexico

Eastern-Joke-7537

East Germany, North Vietnam and the PAC-10 have entered the chat.

creemeeseason

Also, their renegotiation with the Mexican government is ongoing. The other airport operators got really good deals, but OMAB hasn't done theirs yet. PAC got a huge bump after they re-upped.

TheHiveMindSpeaketh

$PAC is comfortably making new all time highs, $OMAB very close. Mexico still winning the global trade war

Stopikingonme

We’re coming up on the Kill Screen too. (Level 256 for PAC-Man btw)

I remember seeing an ad for a ‘Americans against inflation’ PAC or whatever at the height of Covid inflation. The tone of the ad was very defiant and self-righteous and I thought, things are just a bit more costly? If they’re up-in-arms over their stuff costing more, they’ll be apoplectic when it’s actually gone.

Moffload

American farms are really not adapted to todays environnement but thats due to american pricing. The federal government, should switch from grants to fixed buying prices. Also more farmes cooperative and busting agro thrust/business. But all of that would dramatically raise prices for the average joe. Something like the european PAC could be worked out.

**Amazon is X Corp’s largest advertiser. SEC regulations (Regulation S-K, Item 105) and Sarbanes-Oxley require disclosure of any material risks or conflicts involving major partners.** If Amazon knew about reputational or legal risks tied to Musk — especially with **America PAC and related funds flowing through the same financial infrastructure** they used for suppression operations — **they were obligated to disclose it in their 10-K filings.** This isn’t optional. It’s federal securities law.

ohchristworld

Promise? And by the way, that never came from Trump. It came from a PAC called The Heritage Foundation and was written by a host of people not at all affiliated with the Trump administration.

draw2discard2

Remember that auto revenue doesn't matter because Tesla IS NOT a car company. (The kids used to say it was really a tech company, but we now know it is really a Super PAC).

Cabbages24ADollar

Like I said I don’t fully disagree with the symbiotic relationship. Super PAC and CU are GOP elected items that both parties benefit from. Minimum wage is also being held artificially low due to the GOP. The Dems never had decades at the helm, recently. This still ain’t it.

TheHiveMindSpeaketh

~40% of my portfolio has been allocated to the nearshoring theme. I have discussed it on this subreddit a lot over the years. $CP: +.58% YTD (US/Can/Mex railroad) $PAC: +19.03% YTD (Mex airports) $OMAB: +18.04% YTD (Mex airports) $BLX: +5.85% YTD (LatAm trade finance bank) $SPY: -9.36% YTD. $QQQ: -12.18% YTD Market clearly is coming around to what I have said for a while: * Some amount of deglobalization is inevitable, * LatAm (and Mexico specifically) is a necessary trade partner, regardless of US admin rhetoric, * Scaremongering about "Leftists in power in LatAm" is not going to derail the markets Get your portfolios right if you haven't already and say thank you to President Sheinbaum

nugoffeekz

Again, mostly false. Google is your friend see the GDP per capita growth (https://www.macrotrends.net/global-metrics/countries/can/canada/gdp-per-capita). The chart circulating on social media shows an average over 10 years of 1.5%. However, the bulk of the negative GDP growth was due to the reduction in oil prices from 2013-2016 which ended the oil boom in Western Canada and reduced the value of the CAD. Since then, Canada's GDP per Capita has risen 26.64% for an average growth rate of 3.8% per year from 2017-2023. Should these growth trends continue and the USD continue it's free fall during the dedollarization process Canada will emerge significantly stronger. Canada is in fact a real country, a country where people don't disappear and end up in Salvadorian mega prisons, money doesn't equal speech, citizens or students are not deported for speech the government doesn't like and the electoral process isn't undermined by gerrymandering, voter suppression and Super PAC money. If anything the US isn't a real democracy, while Canada is very much a real country.

SpaceMan_Lou

There was fringe parties, unfortunately the only ones that grew traction were the nuts from the 2010 midterm elections in response to Obama and then the 2016 maga cultist that took over the country in 2016 and 2024. Unfortunately the dems blew their chance of winning 2016 by shafting bernie which turned off the independents that tend to swing elections. They could have had a lot of good will by running a populist candidate in bernie against a populice in trump but wanted to force Clinton down our throats bc the democratic party as OP points out is bought by the corporations. The other week while watching the daily show i listened to a democratic party consultant literally say the party doesnt need to change. That they dont need an AOC or Bernie bc in the past some democratic nominees came out of no where. It just goes to show that the party is delusional. Now getting to a third party is nearly impossible bc so many americans are entrenched in the democratic or republican system and there is no money, no PAC, no organization running serious third party candidates. Fyi we do have the green and liberal parties but they are so small and barely win anything. It would take someone with serious pull to start a third party.

Crewmember169

It probably goes into his PAC which he can then use like a slush fund.

Hmmm did they now. Tell me more since corporations cannot directly donate to federal political campaigns. Are you saying Fidelity "Fidelity Investments, through its political action committee (PAC) and individual employee contributions, has donated to various political candidates and committees across the political spectrum. In the 2024 election cycle, Fidelity-affiliated donors contributed approximately $30,895 to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. These contributions came from individuals associated with Fidelity, as corporations are prohibited from donating directly to federal candidates."
