It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.

You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Which is more powerful?

I was interviewed at CES this morning. We mentioned that consumers will decide whether they want to be on a platform that is “unfiltered free speech “ or “ moderated”. I mentioned that I loved @bsky.app , and spontaneously people started clapping 🔥.

Joel Embiid got ejected for reasons that no one knows. Tyrese Maxey responded with a heater that saved the night. The Sixers got contributions across the board to finish off their home slate for 2024 on a high note.

They are 10-17:

If Dems are serious about stopping polio and RFK Jr. there’s a way to do it: Super-PAC ads in red states highlighting his most left-wing views on abortion, the environment. It’s ugly but it’s what *they* would do

This platform is new and already has > 27M users. They only have 20 employees. It’s decentralized so you have a lot more control w/out interference. They may not blow you away today but it should soon vs. later or never.

Leaving this here for folks that think the GOP is “good” for the economy!

Per Simon Rosenberg’s simondwc.bsky.social Hopium Chronicles: “Since 1989 52 million jobs have been created in America. 50 million, 96%, have been created under Democratic Presidents. Essentially all of them, over 36 years”!

The number of Bluesky users has risen by 1,064%”

You'll be shocked to hear that Jill Stein has said not one word, posted nothing whatsoever on her Twitter or IG, about events in Syria or the fall of Assad.

Shocked, I tell you. Shocked!

If we all find 100 posts to like every day, engagement and good will on @bsky.app grows exponentially.

Is it worth a few minutes to make the platform stronger ?

While legacy media focuses on the umpeenth Hunter Biden story, they ignore that Republicans are *right now* trying to overturn the election in North Carolina by challenging 60,000 votes in the state Supreme Court race won by Democrat Allison Riggs.
