Great to visit Adam Smith’s home in Edinburgh. Proud of the work being done by FIU’s Adam Smith Center for Economic Freedom.
Smith spent years on his works and no doubt suffered through his share of brutal winters in Scotland.
Probably didn’t quite envision his namesake on a university civic institute in a city across the Atlantic that features palm trees, sandy beaches, warm weather and high rise condos.
But just goes to show that philosophies rooted in truth are enduring — and can be influential all around the world!

In the Free State of Florida, we understand that economic freedom is the foundation of prosperity. That’s why I was proud to establish the Adam Smith Center for Economic Freedom at Florida International University to ensure the next generation studies the ideas that have lifted more people out of poverty and created more prosperity than any other economic system.
In Edinburgh, I joined FIU and Heriot-Watt University to build on that foundation with the signing of an MOU, which will strengthen the enduring ties between Florida and Scotland, and prepare students for economic advancement.

It was great to see so many foreigners enjoy themselves in the US and have positive reactions to Americans.
But some of this was sad because it was clear that many had absurd preconceived notions due to mass media in their countries, especially in Europe.
Like Mark Twain said, those who don’t read newspapers are uninformed; those who do are misinformed.

And if it wasn’t for America the insignia on the pub would be written in German.
America is 250 years old.
This pub is 1,466 years old.
Another beautiful gift by a great ally of the USA!
JUST IN: Japan declares its friendship with the U.S. is “stronger than ever” as it gifts an additional 250 cherry blossom trees.
Ivy League universities are hedge funds with indoctrination camps as a side hustle.
Harvard U: $56.9 billion in endowments
Princeton: $36 billion in endowments
UPenn: $24.8 billion in endowments
Cornell: $12 billion in endowments
Brown: $8 billion in endowments
Yale: $44 billion in endowments
These are the same people demanding Elon "end world hunger" (lol) with his money

This is about as surprising as the sun rising in the east this morning.
Would be interesting to see what percentage of big NIL payout recipients invest the money for the long-term vs spend on immediate gratification.
I’ve always opposed EV mandates, rejected the idea that EVs will save the world, and preferred traditional engines for vehicles like the F-150 I used to drive.
That said, it’s clear that Teslas are absolutely top-notch products. It’s not hard to see how they’ve developed a dedicated following.
