@mcuban.bsky.social i hear Tesla isn't taking Cybertruck for trade-in, but none of the big outlets are reporting on it. I would think it would be important to current and future stockholders, no?

When I was in a high school creative writing class, I had a character say, "Las Vegas means 'The Vegas' in Mexican" to convey how ignorant she was. Still works.

Good day to remember that DOGE has already lost the US government at least half a trillion dollars this year alone. And likely more.

Europeans don't need ugly American cars. They have governments that are forward-thinking, which provide buses, subways, and high-speed trains, unlike America, which would rather order another aircraft carrier it doesn't need than help its citizens get to work.

All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

Props to George Soros. Hundreds of thousands of paid protestors yesterday, and yet not a single copy of a check or any evidence of electronic transfers to them.

Chaplin going hard in THE IMMIGRANT (1917), cutting from a shot of the Statue of Liberty to the dehumanizing treatment of the immigrants aboard a ship (with a tiny dallop of slapstick thrown in).

What could be more Republican than the son of parents who fled a country with an oppressive regime pulling up the ladder from people fleeing other countries with oppressive regimes?

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Worst two-day stock market crashes in the U.S. by percentage loss:
1. 1929 (the Great Depression)
2. 1987 (Black Monday)
3. 2008 (the Great Recession)
4. YESTERDAY AND TODAY
And while this happened, the man responsible for it was golfing and dining with enemies of America.

Sen. Tillis (R-N.C.) says he’s inclined to support the Grassley-Cantwell bill.
Says he’s heard from constituents worried about the tariffs, esp farmers & restaurant/lodging sectors.
Everyone in red states :: call your reps!!

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.

🌹 Martin Luther King and been shot.
🌹 I was but a lad grabbing for a lunch bag before school, but I knew of King.
🌹 My mother's eyes told me I could never know enough about this great man.
🌹 Celebrate him.
