who loves America the most?

Would Donald Trump make strong president? he might be quite decisive but do I consider Donald Trump an ideal decision maker or manager of anything and the answer is no and the last person almost that I want to be president of the United states is Donald Trump. Really? Yes! Why? Well, I think he has qualities that make him unsuitable for the office . Those quality? Vain glory, puffery to too large an extent. I can go on and on. The tension in the CNN debate studio was thick enough to cut with a knife under the blazing studio lights 2 of America's most controversial political figures sat across from each other ready for what would become the most shocking political confrontation of 2025 Caroline Levitt the 27 year old former White House press secretary turned congressional candidate sat confidently in her signature Navy blazer blonde hair perfectly styled eyes sharp with the kind of ambition that had made for trump's youngest spokesperson across from her cash Patel the 45 year old former FBI director nominee and son of Indian immigrants adjusted his tie with the calm precision of a man who had spent years in the intelligence community what happened in the next 30 seconds would send shockwaves across America and change both of their political careers forever Mr. Patel Levitt began her voice carrying that familiar edge that had made her famous during White House briefings maybe it's time you stopped pretending to understand American values and went back to India where you belong the words hung in the air like a bomb waiting to explode studio audience gasped CNN anchor Anderson Cooper's eyes widened in disbelief social media would later call it the most racist comment ever made on live television by a major political figure but Cash patel's response nobody saw it coming what he said next didn't just destroy levitt's political career that exposed the truth about America that left the entire nation speechless before we dive into this incredible story hit that like button and subscribe so you don't miss any of the explosive political drama we cover trust me you won't want to miss what happens next this wasn't just another political debate this was the moment when America's ugly truths collided with its highest ideals live on national television and by the end of this confrontation one career would be over one would be transformed and the entire country would be talking about what it really means to be American to understand how we got to this explosive moment, you need to know who these two people really are and why this debate mattered so much to America's future at just 27 Caroline Levitt had already conquered political heights that most people never reach in their entire careers, born and raised in New Hampshire she came from a working class, catholic family that taught her the value of hard work and conservative principles, after graduating from Saint Anselm college, She landed a job in Trump’s white house communications team. When she bearly 24 years old. Levitt quickly made a name for herself as one of trump's most fierce defenders. Her youth combined with her sharp tongue and unwavering loyalty made her immediate darling among conservatives when trump needed someone who could handle hostile press conferences and never backed down from a fight. He chose Levitt as the youngest White House press secretary in American history. But levitt's rise wasn't without controversy critics called her trump's attack dog pointing to her history of inflammatory statements and her willingness to say whatever it took to defend her boss her supporters saw her as a breath of fresh air a young woman who wasn't afraid to stand up to the liberal media establishment after leaving the White House Levitt set her sights on Congress running for New Hampshire's first district on a platform of America first policies and traditional values she positioned herself as the future of the conservative movement the one who would carry trump's torch into the next generation. Cash Patel's story was quintessentially American even though Levitt would try to use it against him. Born to parents who immigrated from India in the 1970s Patel grew up in New York watching his father work multiple jobs to provide for his family his parents had come to America with nothing but dreams and a work ethic that would make their son proud Patel excelled in school earning a law degree and eventually working his way up through the Department of Justice he served as a prosecutor going after terrorists and drug cartels putting his life on the line for his adopted country. When Trump came to power Patel became one of his most trusted advisors on national security matters as a senior official in the trump administration Patel was known for his intelligence his loyalty and his ability to get things done he played key roles in counter terrorism operations and was instrumental in exposing what trump called the deep state conspiracy against his presidency trump trusted Patel so much that he nominated him to lead the FBI though the nomination faced fierce opposition from Democrats who saw him as too loyal to trump unlike many politicians Patel had actually put his life on the line for America he had worked undercover operations had been threatened by terrorists and had spent years in the intelligence community protecting American lives his record of service was impeccable but to some his Indian heritage made him an easy target this CNN debate wasn't just about two political careers it was happening at a crucial moment in American politics when questions about immigration identity and what it means to be truly American we're dividing the country Levitt represented a wing of the conservative movement that believed America was losing its identity she spoke for millions of Americans who felt that their country was changing too fast that traditional values were under attack and that only people with deep American roots could truly understand what the country needed Patel represented something different the American dream in action he was proof that immigrants could become some of America's most dedicated patriots that love of country wasn't determined by how many generations your family had been here but by your willingness to serve and sacrifice for American ideals this India debate was supposed to focus on national security policy an area where both had expertise leave it had been trump's spokesperson during major international crises while Patel had actually been in the room making life and death decisions about America's safety but as the cameras rolled in the questions began it became clear that this would be about much more than policy this would be about the soul of America itself CNN had billed it as the future of conservative politics featuring 2 rising stars who represented different visions for where the Republican Party should go the network expected fireworks but nobody anticipated what was about to happen the stage was set. Two ambitious politicians each representing a different vision of America sitting across from each other under the brightest lights in the country one would walk away victorious the other would have their career destroyed by their own words what happened next would force America to confront some uncomfortable truths about itself the debate started normally enough Anderson Cooper CNN's veteran anchor opened with questions about border security and National Defence safe territory for both candidates for the first 20 minutes Levitt and Patel traded policy positions like seasoned professionals Levitt advocated for strict immigration controls and accused the Biden administration of weakening America's borders we need leaders who understand that America must come first. She said her voice was confident and clear. Our citizens deserve to know that their government is working for them not for people who have no right to be here. Patel responded with his typical measured tone outlining specific policies while drawing on his experience in law enforcement I've spent my career actually catching the bad guys he said calmly I've worked undercover to stop drug cartels and terrorists I know the difference between real threats and political talking points the first sign of trouble came when Cooper asked about the trump administration's immigration policies Levitt immediately went on the attack suggesting that some trump officials hadn't been tough enough on immigration enforcement we need people in government who truly understand American values Levitt said her eyes flashing toward Patel people whose loyalty to this country can never be questioned. Patel raised an eyebrow but maintained his composure I think my record speaks for itself he replied I've risked my life for this country more than once I've put terrorists in prison and helped keep Americans safe if that's not loyalty I don't know what it is but Levitt wasn't backing down she had come to this debate with a strategy and she was determined to execute it regardless of the consequences it's easy to claim loyalty she shot back but real Americans don't need to prove their patriotism. It's in their blood. The phrase real Americans hung in the air like a warning shot. Cooper shifted uncomfortably in his chair sensing that the debate was heading into dangerous territory in the control room CNN producers began to worry about where this was going patel's jaw tightened slightly but his voice remained steady miss Levitt I hope you're not suggesting that American citizenship is determined by ancestry rather than values and service I am suggesting, Levitt replied her voice getting sharper that some people understand America instinctively while others have to learn it from books the audience in the studio began to murmur this was getting personal and everyone could feel it on social media viewers were already starting to take sides with hashtags like Warner real Americans and immigrant pride beginning to trend Cooper tried to steer the conversation back to policy asking about specific border security measures but Levitt had tasted blood and she wasn't going to let this opportunity slip away she had clearly decided that the best way to defeat Patel was to question his fundamental right to speak for America. Mr. Patel talks a good game about American values she continued but when push comes to shove where do his loyalties really lie when he looks in the mirror does he see an American or does he see something else the studio fell silent this was no longer a policy debate this was a direct attack on patel's identity and belonging in America Cooper looked stunned clearly struggling with whether to intervene or let this play out Patel's supporters watching at home felt their hearts sink they had seen this before the subtle and not so subtle suggestions that Americans with immigrant backgrounds could never be real Americans no matter how much they achieved or sacrificed but Patel himself remained calm almost eerily so he looked directly at Levitt with the kind of steady gaze that had intimidated terrorists an interrogation rooms. Miss Levitt he said quietly I think you should be very careful about the road you're going down levitt either didn't hear the warning in his voice or chose to ignore it she had committed to this strategy and she was going to see it through to the end. I think you should be very careful about the road you're going down. Levitt either didn't hear the warning in his voice or chose to ignore it she had committed to this strategy and she was going to see it through to the end. Mr. Patel you've served in government and I respect that but there's a difference between serving America and truly understanding America , some of us were born with that understanding others she paused dramatically others will always trying to prove they belong. The insult was clear even if the words were carefully chosen. Levit was suggesting that Pathel despite his years of years of service and sacrifice could never be a real American because of his immigrant background Patel nodded slowly as if he had been expecting this moment all along I see he said calmly so you believe that American identity is determined by ancestry rather than actions that's an interesting position for someone who claims to support constitutional values I believe Levitt replied her voice rising that America should be led by Americans who don't need to prove their loyalty because it's never been in question the crowd was getting restless now some people were cheering levitt's boldness while others were clearly uncomfortable with the direction of the conversation Cooper was frantically getting instructions through his earpiece with CNN executives unsure whether to cut to commercial or let this explosive moment continue that when Patel did something unexpected instead of getting angry or defensive he smiled it was a calm confident smile that suggested he knew something that nobody else in the room knew miss Levitt he said his voice taking on a different tone since you want to talk about who really belongs in America let me tell you a story it's about my family and it's about yours and by the time I'm done I think everyone watching will understand exactly who deserves to question whose loyalty to this country levitt's confidence faltered for just a moment something in patel's tone suggested that he wasn't about to roll over and take her attacks in fact it sounded like he had been preparing for this moment his entire career you see Patel continued his voice growing stronger I've spent years in the intelligence community I know how to research people I know how to find information and before I came here tonight I did a little research on you miss Levitt what I found was very very interesting the studio fell completely silent even the camera operators stopped moving everyone sensed that something big was about to happen levitt's face had gone pale she clearly hadn't expected Patel to fight back with information of his own I don't know what you think you found she said but her voice had lost its earlier confidence patel's smile widened ohh I think you know exactly what I found but don't worry I'm going to share it with everyone and that's when kash Patel dropped a bombshell that would change everything cash Patel leaned forward in his chair his hands folded calmly in front of him the studio lights seemed to focus on him as he prepared to deliver what would become one of the most devastating political comebacks in American history miss Levitt he began his voice carrying the authority of someone who had spent years briefing presidents and hunting terrorists you just told me to go back to India you suggested that I'm not a real American you questioned my loyalty to this country he paused letting the weight of her words sink in with the audience but before we talk about who belongs in America let me share some facts with the American people facts that I think they deserve to know Levitt shifted uncomfortably in her seat the confidence she had shown just moments earlier was evaporating as she realised that Patel wasn't going to simply absorb her attack you see Patel continued when you work in intelligence you learn to verify everything so when I heard that I would be debating Caroline Levitt tonight I did what any good investigator would do I checked the facts about both of our families he reached into his jacket and pulled out a folder this is public information available to anyone who cares to look but I suspect most Americans don't know the real story of the Levitt family history the camera zoomed in on the folder as Patel opened it deliberately CNN producers were frantically trying to decide whether to intervene but the ratings were skyrocketing as viewers across the country sensed they were witnessing something historic let's start with my family Patel said calmly my parents came to America in 1970 with nothing but hope and determination my father worked three jobs as a taxi driver during the day a security guard at night and a janitor on weekends my mother cleaned office buildings and took care of other people's children his voice remained steady but there was emotion behind it they didn't come here for government handouts or special treatment they came here because they believed in the American dream the idea that if you work hard and follow the rules you can build a better life for your children he looked directly at Levitt my father never took a penny of welfare never asked for special treatment never expected America to owe him anything he just worked and saved and sent me to school with the money he earned with his own hands the studio was completely silent now even levitt's supporters were listening intently when i was old enough to serve my country patel continued i didn't hesitate i became a prosecutor putting criminals in prison i worked undercover to catch drug dealers and terrorists. Arrests I risked my life in operations that I still can't talk about because they're classified he paused his eyes never leaving levitt's face I've been shot at by terrorists I've been threatened by drug cartels I've spent nights in foreign countries where being discovered would have meant death all to protect American lives the emotion in his voice was growing stronger now so when miss Levitt questions my loyalty to America when she tells me to go back to India she's not just insulting me she's insulting every immigrant family that has ever sacrificed for this country she's insulting every American whose parents came here seeking a better life applause began to ripple through parts of the audience but Patel held up his hand but I'm not done yet because the really interesting part isn't my family's story it's hers levitt's face went white she clearly hadn't expected this Patel opened the folder and pulled out several documents you see miss Levitt loves to talk about being a real American whose family has deep roots in this country she's built her entire political identity around the idea that she represents authentic American values he held up the first document but according to public records the Levitt family immigrated to America in 1892 that's right Caroline Levitt is a third generation immigrant just like millions of other Americans the audience began to murmur this wasn't what anyone had expected but here's where it gets really interesting Patel continued his voice taking on the tone of a prosecutor presenting evidence to a jury the Levitt family came here from wait for it Canada he paused for effect that's right folks the woman who just told me to go back to India is herself the descendant of Canadian immigrants who came to America looking for economic opportunities the murmuring in the audience grew louder some people began to laugh at the irony but wait there's more Patel said clearly enjoying himself now according to immigration records caroline's great grandfather Thomas Levitt was actually refused entry to the United states twice before finally being admitted on his third attempt Levitt tried to interrupt this is ridiculous you can't compare oh but I can Patel cut her off smoothly because you see Thomas Levitt was rejected because immigration officials were concerned about his ability to support himself in America he had no money no job prospects and no guarantees he looked directly at the camera in other words Thomas Levitt was exactly the kind of immigrant that his great granddaughter now wants to keep out of America the audience erupted some people were cheering others were laughing and a few were clearly uncomfortable with this turn of events Patel wasn't finished but here's my favorite part of the Levitt family story Thomas levitt's immigration petition was actually sponsored by an Indian American businessman who had made his fortune in the textile industry the studio fell silent again as the full impact of this revelation sank in that's right Patel said his voice rising now caroline levitt's family was only able to come to america because an indian immigrant vouched for them and helped them get his voice rising now Caroline levitt's family was only able to come to America because an Indian immigrant vouched for them and helped them get established he turned to face Levitt directly so when you tell me to go back to India you're literally telling the descendant of the people who helped your family come to America to leave the country that we both call home the irony was so perfect so complete that even some of levitt's supporters in the audience began to shake their heads in disbelief but Patel wasn't done delivering his knockout punch miss Levitt he said his voice now carrying the full authority of his years in law enforcement you want to talk about real Americans let me tell you what real Americans do he stood up his presence commanding the entire studio real Americans don't judge people by the color of their skin or the country their grandparents came from real Americans judge people by their character their actions and their service to others his voice was rising with passion now real Americans don't tell other Americans to go back where they came from especially when their own families came from somewhere else too he pointed directly at Leavitt real Americans don't build their careers on dividing people and spreading hate real Americans build their careers on bringing people together and serving their country the audience was on its feet now many people applauding loudly even some of the camera operators were nodding in agreement you want to know the difference between us miss Levitt Patel asked his voice now thundering through the studio my family came to America with nothing and gave everything to this country your family came to America with nothing and apparently taught their descendants to look down on other people who did the same thing he paused writing his words sink in I've spent my entire adult life serving America as a prosecutor as an intelligence officer as a public servant you've spent your career serving Donald Trump and your own political ambitions the contrast was stark and devastating so before you ever again question anyone's loyalty to America Patel concluded his voice dropping to a whisper that somehow carried throughout the entire studio you might want to look in the mirror and ask yourself what you've actually done to make this country better he sat back down folded his hands and looked calmly at Anderson Cooper I believe you had a question about border security the studio erupted in applause even some of the CNN crew were clapping Levitt sat in her chair her face red with embarrassment and anger clearly unable to formulate a response to the devastating takedown she had just received Cooper professional that he was tried to restore order to the debate but everyone knew that the real drama was over cash Patel had just delivered one of the most perfect political comebacks in American history using levitt's own family history to expose the hypocrisy of her attack as the applause finally died down Patel looked directly into the camera and said America is great because we welcome people who want to work hard and contribute to our society regardless of where they came from that's what makes us different from every other country in the world and anyone who tries to divide us based on our origins doesn't understand what America is really about the message was clear powerful and undeniably American and in that moment kash Patel didn't just win a debate he reminded the entire country what it really means to be American the immediate aftermath of cash patel's devastating response was unlike anything CNN had ever experienced within seconds of his final statement social media exploded in a way that political observers had never seen before before Anderson Cooper could even wrap up the debate mundane cash destroys Caroline was trending #1 on Twitter the video clip of patel's response was being shared faster than the platform servers could process it conservative commentator Ben Shapiro who rarely praised anyone outside his own ideological circle tweeted holy shut I've never seen a more perfect political takedown in my life Cash Patel just schooled everyone on what American values actually mean liberal commentator van Jones usually a harsh critic of trump associated figures posted I disagreed with Patel on policy but what he just did was pure American greatness sometimes truth transcends politics the memes started flowing immediately the most popular showed a photo of Patel calmly sitting with his folder while Levitt looked panicked captioned when you come to a fact fight with talking points another showed the Statue of Liberty giving a thumbs up with the text immigrants schooling racists since 1886 but the most powerful posts weren't memes they were personal stories thousands of Americans began sharing their own immigration stories many starting with my family came here from followed by tales of sacrifice hard work and love of country the political implications were immediate and far reaching within hours major republican figures were forced to choose sides in a way that revealed deep fractures within the conservative movement senator Ted Cruz himself the son of an immigrant tweeted cash Patel just reminded us all what conservative values really mean character matters more than ancestry service matters more than heritage Florida governor Ron de santis clearly trying to navigate the controversy carefully posted America has always been strengthened by legal immigrants who embrace our values and contribute to our society but perhaps the most surprising response came from Donald Trump himself known for his loyalty to his former staff trump found himself in an impossible position Levitt had been one of his most faithful defenders but Patel had also been a trusted adviser trump's response posted to truth social 3 hours after the debate was characteristically unpredictable cash Patel is a Great American and a true patriot he served our administration with honor and distinction some people need to learn the difference between America first and America only we welcome legal immigrants who love our country the statement was widely interpreted as trump throwing Levitt under the bus while embracing Patel a stunning reversal for someone who usually stood by his people no matter what major news outlets struggled to process what they had witnessed Fox News usually friendly to trump aligned figures like Levitt found themselves in an awkward position Tucker Carlson often criticized for his own comments about immigration surprised everyone with his response on his show the next night what cash Patel did last night wasn't just good television Carlson said it was a master class in American values when someone attacks you for your background you don't respond with anger you respond with facts with service and with dignity that's what winners do CNN's ratings for the debate broke records becoming the most watched political program in the network's history Anderson Cooper reflecting on the moment during the next day's broadcast said in 30 years of journalism I've never seen anything like what kash Patel did last night he turned what could have been a moment of division into a lesson what unites us as Americans even international media took notice the BBC's headline read american debate shows how immigrants often understand democracy better than native born citizens the times of india proudly proclaimed indian american shows america how to win with for Caroline Levitt the aftermath was a political disaster of epic proportions by the morning after the debate three major donors had pulled their support from her congressional campaign her campaign manager resigned citing fundamental disagreements about strategy and messaging the New Hampshire Republican Party which had previously endorsed her candidacy issued a carefully worded statement distancing themselves from her comments the New Hampshire Republican Party believes that American values are not determined by ancestry but by character and service to country more damaging were the defections from her own staff her communications director press secretary and deputy campaign manager all resigned within 48 hours with several citing their own immigrant backgrounds as factors in their decisions Levitt attempted damage control with a series of tweets and a hastily arranged press conference but nothing could undo the damage her explanation that she had been taken out of context rang hollow when the entire exchange was available on video I never meant to suggest that Mister Patel wasn't American she claimed at her press conference I was simply trying to highlight the difference between those who understand American culture instinctively and those who have had to learn it the explanation only made things worse as critics pointed out that she was still suggesting there were different levels of americanness based on family history for cash Patel the debate transformed him from a respected but relatively unknown former government official into a national conservative hero speaking requests poured in from across the country book publishers reached out about autobiography deals political operatives began floating his name for higher office but perhaps more importantly Patel had achieved something rare in modern politics he had managed to unite people across party lines around a shared vision of American values his response to Levitt was studied in political science classes as an example of how to respond to attacks with grace and effectiveness communications experts praised his use of facts his emotional authenticity and his ability to turn a negative moment into a positive message about America the debate had implications far beyond the two participants patel's response forced a broader conversation about immigration and American identity that many politicians had been avoiding immigration advocacy groups seized on patel's words as a perfect example of how immigrants often have a deeper appreciation for American values than those who take them for granted conservative groups found themselves in the unusual position of defending an immigration narrative that emphasized contribution over restriction the debate also highlighted the complexity of modern American identity millions of Americans saw themselves in both patel's story of immigrant success and levitt's appeal to traditional American values forcing a more nuanced conversation about what it means to belong in America in the months following the debate political analysts identified it as a turning point in how conservatives talk about immigration and American identity the old model of US versus them rhetoric became much more difficult to sustain when the them included people like cash Patel who had clearly sacrificed more for America than many of the people questioning their loyalty republican primary candidates across the country found themselves being asked the Patel question how they would respond to attacks on the americanness of legal immigrants who had served their country with distinction the debate also marked the beginning of the end for levitt's political career she would eventually withdraw from the congressional race citing family considerations though everyone understood that her candidacy had become untenable after the debate perhaps the most important outcome of the debate was the message it sent about American values in the 21st century patel's response reminded the country that America's strength has always come from its ability to welcome people who are willing to work hard and contribute to society regardless of where they came from his calm factual response to a racist attack showed that the best way to combat division is not with anger or defensiveness but with truth dignity and an unwavering commitment to the values that make America great as one viral tweet put it kash Patel just showed America how to win an argument without losing your soul the story of cash patel's triumph over Caroline levitt's attack became more than just a political moment it became the template for how Americans should respond when faced with attempts to divide them based on ancestry or background in the end the debate proved that America's greatest strength isn't its military or its economy it's its ability to create Americans out of people from anywhere in the world who are willing to embrace American values and contribute to American success

how to make spaghetti

今天这期《家庭主厨日》，我要教大家自制意大利麺酱。这个配方经过多年验证，是我们全家百吃不厌的经典款。我通常都会一次性做双份，把一半冷冻起来，这样忙碌不想下厨的夜晚就能随时取用。今天我们会用到三种番茄加工品：碎番茄、番茄酱和番茄膏。这些食材能呈现最新鲜的番茄风味，因为它们都是在采摘后立即加工封存的。如果想用新鲜番茄，我另有视频教程，但务必确保番茄足够新鲜，最好是自家种植或农贸市场采购的。 现在移步灶台开始制作。取4-6夸脱容量的锅，中高火加热2大勺橄榄油，预热一分钟后加入切碎的白洋葱或黄洋葱。煸炒约5分钟至洋葱变软呈半透明状。我这里演示的是基础款意面酱，因为我家常搭配肉丸食用，所以不额外添加绞牛肉。但如果你想加绞牛肉，此刻就该和洋葱一起入锅彻底炒熟，然后沥掉多余油脂。 接下来加入5瓣蒜末，煸炒60-90秒激发蒜香，然后倒入半杯鸡高汤（也可以用白/红葡萄酒替代）。加入28-30盎司碎番茄、15盎司纯番茄酱（即番茄原浆），以及6盎司罐装番茄膏。分享个小技巧：开罐时两端都切开，就能用另一端的盖子轻松推出膏体。 撒入1大勺糖中和番茄酸度（若不用糖，可用等量极细胡萝卜末替代）。再加入1大勺干牛至、1/2小勺盐、1/4小勺黑胡椒，最后可选加入1大勺茴香籽——这种自带八角风味的香料常用于香肠制作，能为酱料增添肉香而不必真加肉。最后拌入1/2杯新鲜罗勒（或2大勺干罗勒），以及1/4杯新鲜欧芹碎（或1大勺干欧芹）。 将所有材料搅拌均匀后转小火慢炖。建议至少炖煮30分钟，有时间的话可延长至2-4小时（长时间炖煮需加盖防水分蒸发）。若不想守候在灶台旁，也可转入慢炖锅，让你能安心处理其他事务，晚餐时分就能直接享用。 酱料炖好后，可选择保留颗粒口感，或用搅拌机打成顺滑质地。这个配方也适合装罐保存（需按比例添加柠檬汁/柠檬酸），但最简便的方法是冷冻储存——装入密封保鲜袋平铺冷冻即可。 完整食谱已附在视频简介区。记得订阅点赞，并浏览我的其他视频，获取数百道在家就能轻松复刻的餐厅级食谱。我们下期见！ Today, on this Day at Home Chef, I'm showing you how to make homemade spaghetti sauce. This one is a tried and true family favorite that I've been making for years. In fact, usually I make a double batch just so I can freeze half for those busy nights when I don't feel like cooking. We're going to be using three different preserved tomato products today, crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and tomato paste. These will give you the best, most fresh tomato flavor because they were preserved immediately after picking. If you want to use whole tomatoes, I have a separate video for that. You'll just want to make sure that they're fresh, like from your own garden or from a farmer's market. Next, let's head on over to the stove and get started. Get 2 tablespoons of olive oil heating in a four to six quart. That over medium high heat gives out a minute to heat up and then add in one white or yellow diced onion. We're going to saute this for about 5 minutes until the onions start to get soft and translucent. Now I'm demonstrating just the plain spaghetti sauce because my family likes to eat spaghetti and meatballs so I don't need to. Had any ground beef to this? However, if you wanted to use ground beef, you'd add it in with your onions and cook it thoroughly and then drain off the excess grease. Next, I'm going to add in five cloves of minced garlic. Let the garlic toast for about 60 to 90 seconds to really bring out the best garlic flavor, and then we'll pour it. In half a cup of chicken broth, or you can use white or red wine. Add in 28 to 30 ounces of crushed tomato, 15 ounces of tomato sauce which is just pureed tomatoes, and a six ounce can of tomato paste. And if you cut open both sides, an easy trick is that you can then use the other light. To push it right through makes it come out so much easier. Then we'll sprinkle in a tablespoon of sugar, which will help to counteract the acidity of the tomatoes. Or if you don't want to use sugar, you can use the same amount one tablespoon of really finely minced carrot. Next you'll need one tablespoon of dried oregano, half a teaspoon. Of salt 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper and then this last one is optional but I also like to add in one tablespoon of fennel seeds. Fennel has this wonderful anise flavor. They use it in sausages and so this adds a real meaty flavor to the sauce without actually using meat then we'll add in half a cup of fresh basil, or you can use about 2 tablespoons of dried basil on the very last ingredient, 1/4 cup of freshly chopped parsley or one tablespoon of dried parsley. Then we just stir this all together and bring it to a simmer. Flavor is going to develop as this sauce simmers. I recommend letting it simmer over a low heat for at least 30 minutes. Or if you've got the time, this can go for up to two to four hours with long simmering times you want to add a lid on to prevent evaporation. If you don't want to babysit it on the stove top, you can also transfer it all into a slow cooker and let it simmer throughout the day while you're busy doing other things and running errands, and then it will be ready for dinner once your sauce. Is done simmering. You can either serve it up as is all chunky, or use an immersion blender or a regular blender to blend until smooth. You can use this recipe for canning. You'll need to add the appropriate ratio of lemon juice or citric acid, or the easiest way to store it is to freeze it. I just put it into a plastic resealable. Freezer bag and then lay it flat to freeze. Thanks for watching. You can find the full written recipe in the video description.

Why people are not happy? Says by Charlie Munger

Last year when we talked. Earlier you mentioned that. Donald Trump exhibited a form of sickness, I think is how you characterize it. I think it came you were characterizing. His personality and his behavior. It's been another year since he's been in office and I wonder how you would assess him. Well, because I consider it counterproductive to hate as much as both parties now hate. And I have disciplined myself and I know. I regard all politicians. Higher than I used to. I did that as a matter of self preservation. The other thing I did to make me feel better about the current scene is I reread the decline and Fall of the Roman Empire and it goes on for a great many hundreds of pages. And that made me feel a lot better about the current political scene. We're way ahead of the. Comments at the end. That's a pretty low bar. Well, I didn't. It's very helpful. I suggest you try it. You will feel better about the present world if you look at that one. And you said you elevated politicians. Yeah. Make yourself feel better. Explain. It's counterproductive. I hate so much. All of us on both sides are getting to hate so much too much. And I've decided I'm gonna back off from that. How do we resolve it? We don't have to resolve it. They all pass. Remember the old saying, this too will pass. They all go away. I have a different rule about politicians. They are never so bad you don't live to want them back. There will come a time when those people who hate Trump will wish that he were back. I don't think I'll live to see it, but I confidently predict that will happen. That's interesting. Well, if you look at the whole scan of human history and the people who led it. There are a lot of bad leaders. 去年我们交谈时，你曾提到唐纳德·特朗普表现出某种病态——我记得你是这样描述的。当时你是在剖析他的个性和行为。如今他又执政了一年，我想知道你现在如何评价他？ When we talked last year, you mentioned that Donald Trump was showing some kind of pathology — I remember you describing it that way. At that time, you were dissecting his personality and behavior. Now that he's been in power for another year, I wonder what you think of him now? 因为我认为，像如今两党这样深陷仇恨对谁都没有好处。我一直在约束自己，也开始以比过去更高的标准看待所有政客——这其实是一种自我保护。 Because I don't think it's good for anyone to be so deeply hated by the two parties as they are today. I've been restraining myself and I've started to look at all politicians to a higher standard than I used to – it's actually a form of self-preservation. 另一个让我对现状感觉好些的方法是重读《罗马帝国衰亡史》。这部巨著长达数百页，读完后我对当前政治局势反而释怀了许多。我们至少比书末描述的境况强得多……虽然这个标准确实够低的。（笑）不过这个方法很管用，建议你也试试——读完你会对现实世界感觉好受些。 Another way to feel better about the current situation is to reread History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. This magnum opus is hundreds of pages long, and after reading it, I was relieved by the current political situation. We are at least much better than the situation described at the end of the book...... Although this standard is indeed low enough. But it works, so I recommend you try it – you'll feel better about the real world after reading it. （采访者：你说你提高了对政客的评价？） (Interviewer: You said you raised your rating of politicians?) ） 是的，这样自己心里舒服些。解释起来就是：无休止的仇恨毫无意义。现在我们两派人都陷入过度的仇恨，我决定跳出这个怪圈。 Yes, it's more comfortable for you. The explanation is this: endless hatred is meaningless. Now that both of us are in an excessive hatred, I decided to jump out of this cycle. （采访者：那问题怎么解决呢？） (Interviewer: So how do you solve the problem?) ） 根本不需要解决。一切都会过去，老话说得好"这也终将消逝"。所有政客最终都会退出舞台。我有个观察政客的法则：再糟糕的政客，总有一天你会怀念他。现在那些憎恨特朗普的人，未来某个时刻反而会盼望他回来。我可能活不到那天，但我确信这一幕终将发生。 There is no need to solve it at all. Everything will pass, and as the old saying goes, "this too will pass away". All politicians will eventually retire from the stage. I have a rule for observing politicians: no matter how bad a politician is, one day you will miss him. Those who hate Trump now will be hoping for his return at some point in the future. I may not live to that day, but I'm sure it will happen. 这其实很有趣。纵观人类历史长河中的领导者，糟糕的统治者从来都不少见。 It's actually quite interesting. Throughout human history, bad rulers have never been uncommon. Why people are not happy? Says by Charlie Munger When things were way tougher. And that has a very simple explanation. The world is not driven by greed, driven by envy. And so the fact that everybody's five times better off than they used to be, they take it for granted. All they think about is somebody else has having more now. And it's not fair that he should have it and they don't. That's the reason that God came down and told Moses that you couldn't envy your neighbor's wife or even his donkey. I mean, even the old Jews were having trouble with envy. And so it's built into the nature of things that a lot of people are very unhappy and feel very abused after everything's approved by about 600% because there's still somebody else who has more. You know, we have whole networks now that they want to pour gasoline on the flames of envy. People are less happy about the state of affairs than they were when things were way tougher. 即便在昔日更为艰难的日子里，他们曾感到幸福。这背后其实有个非常简单的解释：世界并非由贪婪驱动，而是由嫉妒驱使。尽管如今每个人的生活都比过去优渥五倍，人们却将此视为理所当然。他们满脑子想的都是别人现在拥有更多，并认为"凭什么他可以得到而我不行"——这不公平。这正是上帝降临人间告诫摩西"不可贪恋邻人之妻，甚至他的驴"的原因。你看，连古犹太人都曾为嫉妒所困。 这种不满根植于人性之中：当生活水平已提升约600%后，仍有许多人感到极度不快乐，甚至觉得自己备受亏待——只因总有人拥有得更多。如今更有一整个网络媒体生态在往嫉妒的火焰上浇汽油。相比过去物质匮乏的岁月，人们对现状的幸福感反而更低了。 Warren Buffer says: Warren Buffer says: Someone tweeted don't take vacations, what's the point? If you're not enjoying your work, you're in the wrong job. It sounded real, like something you might say, but it was something that Donald Trump tweeted. Oh. Well anyway, I don't know what he feels is in the wrong job now for something else. They're absolutely if I should that student last week, 160 of them from Harvard and South Dakota State. I just tell them try to find your passion and you know, I mean may not find it the first time, but you know, don't sleepwalk through life. Find something that you really enjoy doing if you can do it and not you know, not everybody's lucky enough to be able to find that, but it's. Thought to be your goal, but to make $10 a week more doing something that you don't feel good about compared to something you feel good about, make a change. Warren Buffet says: Now, Donald Trump has been in a lot of businesses. He's had a lot of bankruptcies, but usually that's just involved borrowing money from the American public. But in 1995, to my knowledge, it's the only time Donald Trump went to the American people. And he said, join me, you know, I'm a winner and join me and invest in my company, Trump Hotels and Casino Resorts. It's the only time he asked the public United. But now you got a chance to join the great man. And this investment that was in 1995 they listed on the New York Stock Exchange. And Mr. Trump very modestly made the ticker symbol DJT. Guess what that's for? So he named the company after himself, and he gets the ticker symbol after himself. The next 10 years, the company loses money every year. Every single year. The he takes out $44 million in compensation. During that. The if you in 1995 when he offered this company if a monkey had thrown a dart. At the stock page, the monthly on average would have made 150%. But the people that believed in him, that listened to his siren song, came away losing well over $0.90 on the dollar. They got back less than a dime. 有人发推特说"别休假了，有什么意义？如果你不喜欢自己的工作，那就是入错行了"。这话听起来很真实，像是你会说的那种话，但其实是唐纳德·特朗普发的推文。（观众笑声）哦，好吧。反正我不知道他现在觉得什么算是"入错行"——可能是指其他事情吧。上周我刚对160名来自哈佛和南达科他州立大学的学生说过：要寻找自己的激情所在。我的意思是，可能第一次尝试找不到，但绝不能浑浑噩噩过一生。尽可能找到你真正热爱的事业——虽然并非人人都足够幸运能找到——但这应该成为你的目标。与其为了每周多赚10美元做违心的工作，不如选择让你感到快乐的事业。 沃伦·巴菲特继续道： 要知道，唐纳德·特朗普涉足过很多行业，也经历过多次破产，但通常只是涉及向公众借钱。但据我所知，1995年是他唯一一次直接向美国民众募资。当时他说"跟我投资吧，我是赢家"，邀请大众投资他的"特朗普酒店赌场度假村"公司——这是他唯一一次公开募集资金。（观众笑声）当年这家公司在纽约证券交易所上市时，特朗普先生"谦虚地"选择了DJT作为股票代码。知道代表什么吗？（观众笑声）他用自己名字命名公司，连股票代码也要用自己名字缩写。结果随后十年间，这家公司年年亏损，每年如此。而他却从中获取了4400万美元薪酬。1995年他推出这个项目时，如果让一只猴子对着股票版掷飞镖随机选股，（观众笑声）平均收益都能达到150%。但那些相信他、听信他蛊惑言辞的投资者，每投资1美元就亏损超过90美分——收回的还不到10美分。

What is RSV?

1. 什么是RSV？ 1. What is RSV? 呼吸道合胞病毒（RSV）是一种高度传染性的病毒，主要感染呼吸道。虽然多数人症状轻微（如流鼻涕、咳嗽、发烧），但对以下高风险人群可能导致严重并发症（如细支气管炎或肺炎）： Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a highly contagious virus that primarily infects the respiratory tract. Although most people have mild symptoms (e.g., runny nose, cough, fever), serious complications (e.g., bronchiolitis or pneumonia) can occur in people who are at high risk: 6个月以下婴儿（尤其是早产儿或有慢性疾病的婴儿）； Infants under 6 months of age (especially premature babies or those with chronic medical conditions); 60岁以上老年人（尤其患有心肺疾病或免疫力低下者）； Elderly people over 60 years old (especially those with heart and lung diseases or weakened immunity); 全球范围内，RSV每年导致约10万名5岁以下儿童死亡，其中多数发生在低收入国家。 Worldwide 2. RSV免疫产品的类型 2. Types of RSV immunization products 目前主要有两种预防策略： There are two main prevention strategies: A. 孕妇疫苗接种 A. Vaccination of pregnant women 目标人群：妊娠28~36周的孕妇，通过母体抗体保护婴儿； Target population: pregnant women at 28~36 weeks of gestation, protect their babies through maternal antibodies; 疫苗举例：辉瑞的Abrysvo®（RSVpreF）（2025年3月获WHO预认证）； Examples of vaccines: Pfizer's Abrysvo® (RSVpreF) (prequalified by the WHO in March 2025); 有效性：婴儿出生后6个月内因RSV住院的风险降低57%； Efficacy: 57% reduction in risk of hospitalization for RSV within 6 months of birth; 接种时间：RSV流行季前（如北半球为9月至次年1月）。 Timing of vaccination: pre-RSV season (e.g., September to January in the Northern Hemisphere). B. 婴儿单克隆抗体 B. Infant monoclonal antibodies 产品：尼塞韦单抗（Beyfortus®），单剂注射； Product: Nisevimab (Beyfortus®), single injection; 保护期：至少5个月，覆盖整个RSV流行季； Protection period: at least 5 months, covering the entire RSV season; 有效性：健康婴儿因RSV住院风险降低76.8%。 Efficacy: Healthy infants were 76.8% less likely to be hospitalized for RSV. C. 老年人疫苗 C. Vaccines for the elderly 可选疫苗： Vaccine Options: GSK的Arexvy®（RSVPreF3）（佐剂蛋白疫苗）； GSK's Arexvy® (RSVPreF3) (adjuvanted protein vaccine); 辉瑞的Abrysvo®（RSVpreF）； Pfizer's Abrysvo® (RSVpreF); Moderna的mRESVIA®（mRNA-1345）（mRNA疫苗）。 Moderna's mRESVIA® (mRNA-1345) (mRNA vaccine) 有效性：对严重下呼吸道疾病的保护率为67%~89%； Effectiveness: The protection rate against severe lower respiratory tract diseases is 67%~89%; 接种建议： Vaccination Recommendations: 75岁以上普遍接种； Universal vaccination for people over 75 years of age; 60~74岁高风险人群（如慢性心肺疾病患者）建议接种； It is recommended for high-risk groups aged 60~74 (such as patients with chronic cardiopulmonary diseases); 美国CDC近期建议50~59岁高风险成年人也可考虑接种。 The US CDC recently recommends that high-risk adults aged 50~59 can also consider vaccination. 3. 关键接种建议 3. Key vaccination recommendations 婴儿：选择孕妇疫苗接种或婴儿抗体注射（无需两者）； Infants: choose between pregnant women vaccination or infant antibody injection (no need for both); 老年人：75岁以上接种单剂，60~74岁根据风险决定； Elderly: over 75 years old to receive a single dose, 60~74 years old according to the risk; 时间：最好在RSV流行季前完成（如北半球8~10月）。 Time: It is best to complete it before the RSV epidemic season (such as August ~ October in the northern hemisphere). 4. 安全性与副作用 4. Safety and side effects 常见反应：注射部位疼痛、疲劳、头痛； Common reactions: pain at the injection site, fatigue, headache; 罕见风险： Rare Risks: 吉兰-巴雷综合征（GBS）：老年人中报告率约1~2例/10万剂次； Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS): the reporting rate in the elderly is about 1~2 cases/100,000 doses; 早产/子痫前期：孕妇接种后偶发，但因果关系未明确； Preterm birth/preeclampsia: sporadic occurrence in pregnant women after vaccination, but the causal relationship is not clear; 监测系统：美国VAERS和V-Safe持续跟踪不良反应。 Monitoring system: VAERS and V-Safe in the United States continue to track adverse reactions. 5. 全球影响 5. Global impact WHO强调低收入国家应优先推广RSV免疫（占婴儿死亡病例的97%）； WHO stresses that low-income countries should prioritize the rollout of RSV immunization (97% of infant deaths); 预测显示，RSV疫苗在2024–25年可减少美国2.93万例住院。 Projections show that the RSV vaccine could reduce 29,300 hospitalizations in the United States in 2024–25. 总结 summary RSV疫苗为高风险人群（如婴儿、老年人）提供了重要保护。目前策略包括孕妇疫苗、婴儿抗体和老年人疫苗，需根据年龄和健康状况选择。更多信息可参考世界卫生组织或美国CDC指南。 RSV vaccines provide important protection for high-risk populations (e.g., infants, older adults). Current strategies include vaccines for pregnant women, antibodies for infants, and vaccines for the elderly, depending on age and health status. More information can be found in the World Health Organization or CDC guidelines. What is CDC? The CDC stands for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the national public health agency of the United States. It is a federal agency under the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Disease Prevention & Control – Monitors and responds to infectious diseases (e.g., COVID-19, flu, HIV) and chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, heart disease). Public Health Research – Conducts studies to understand health risks and improve medical guidelines. Emergency Preparedness – Leads responses to outbreaks, bioterrorism threats, and natural disasters. Health Education – Provides guidelines on vaccinations, food safety, workplace health, and travel safety.

kundalinii

他是北半球达到Kuandalinii提升到,快要接近sahasrara cakra level的人, 其他人都在胡说八道，读他们的东西, 就知道他们在放屁， 说什么kuandalinii这个kuandalinii那个的，连他们自己都不知道在说些什么。除了印度人之外。他也是唯一能背诵Ananda Sutra的唯一。问过他们能否背诵？，回说可以，人能知道他们在说谎。 Ganesha is the only person in the Northern Hemisphere who has reached the level of Kundalini awakening close to the Sahasrara Chakra. Others are just talking nonsense. Reading their stuff, you can tell they are talking rubbish, saying this and that about Kundalini, without even knowing what they are talking about. Except for Indians. Ganesha is also the only one who can recite the Ananda Sutra. When asked if they can recite it, they say they can, but people can tell they are lying.

Mahabuni says 1

The West said. Well, we believe that in everything you do, you have to base it on evidence. You have to be reasonable and logical in whatever you do. And yet, despite all this, the fundamental maxims of Western civilization remain. The West is acting irrationally. The first example; We know that the world has changed because it's become a small interdependent world. And so as I to use a simple boat analogy, the 8 billion of us live in cabins on the same boat. So when one cabin catches COVID. All 193 cabins catch COVID. The most irrational thing you can do is when your boat is sinking. As a result of climate change, instead of trying to save the boat, you argue about whose cabin is more beautiful. But that's what the West is doing. For the United States to launch its true geopolitical contests against China. When the planet is in peril is hugely irresponsible and hugely irrational. And what's shocking? Is that the West has the leading universities, the leading think tanks, the leading media channels, and they don't point out that this is irrational behavior. The second example is that there, what's so obvious is that history has turned a fundamental corner this century. 100 years ago, 100,000 Englishmen could rule over 300 million Indian ancestors of mine. But European power has diminished. One statistic in the year 1980, the combined EU GDP was 10 times the size of China, 10 times. Now it's the same size as China. And by 2050, Europe will be half that of China. Now when you have this massive shifts of power happening, surely you should look for rational Ways and Means of adjusting. Is that happening? It's not, and the third sign of irrationality. The most important priority for any society anywhere in the world should be to improve the well-being of its own population. And yet, paradoxically, the United States, which is the most rational. Society on planet Earth at a time when the average standard of living of the bottom 50% of the American population has stagnated for three decades, and the priority should be to take care of the bottom 50%. Instead of focusing on people, the United States is Primacy is more important than people. Any country that chooses primacy over the well-being of its own people is making an irrational decision. And nobody. Questions for the past 45 years No major There's been no major war. This did not happen by accident. This happened as a result of decisions made by countries and leaders here who understood that the priority is to focus on economic development and not get engaged in wars, Western scholars who said at the end of the Cold War, Asia's future. Is Europe's pass So in the past Europe fought all the big wars. World War One, World War 2? Ohh, that's Asia's future. Paradoxically, the opposite has happened. The major wars have happened on the fringes of Europe and Northern Asia, and no European asked the most basic question. Why can't we Europeans not learn to be as peaceful investigations? That's what our friend grandma listen, yes, you know, keep saying and you know, he wrote a book called Destined for War in which he documents that throughout history the number one power never gives up its position or gracefully. American leader can be seen to be soft on China today. Traditionally, it's the educated establishment that should be more rational and calm, and the people at large may be subject to populist moods, but in the United States, paradoxically. And told that if you do the surveys of the population, the people don't share the same degree of anti China animus that you find in the establishment. But the establishment in Washington DC has locked itself into an anti China posture and today it's impossible. For any politician to say anything, just something rational on China. When you and I trade, you both of us benefit. That's why we trade. But the paradox is that even though trade right is a rational activity within two countries, anybody who supports trade. China is dead politically now, which is bizarre?
