It was a pleasure.

[Two-Tone Blue Nation @TTBN_Tailgates]

Special shoutout to Amy Adams for coming out to our tailgate. How many NFL owners do that for their fans?

Let’s keep it going in Baltimore this weekend.

Titan up!

There are currently 190,000 children in Chicago living below the poverty level.

For the price of the $900 million Obama library, we could have given each one of these poor children in Chicago $4,736.

Am I doing this right?

[Big Luke 🇳🇿 @2ToneBigLuke]

Let’s go!!!

Titans, Jeffery Simmons agree to three-year, $105.8M extension making him highest-paid DT in NFL history. (via @rapsheet, @MikeGarafolo)

Idiots.

BREAKING:

The Netherlands just told its citizens to go to hell.

36% tax on unrealized gains. Approved.

You didn't sell anything.
You didn't make a single euro in cash.

Your portfolio went up on paper.
The government sends you a bill anyway.

61,000 citizens petitioned against it.
Parliament approved it anyway.

No cash to pay the tax? Not their problem.
Asset crashes after you paid? Not their problem.

This is not tax policy.
This is the government treating your paper gains as their income. Before you've made a single euro.

The most talented Dutch investors are already leaving.
Capital goes where it is treated best.

2028 is coming.

Plan accordingly.

@RepMcGarvey I never paid 11 billion in taxes in a given year?

[Kevin Patrick Mahaffey @dropalltables]

Oh yes, I remember that Bond film where the villain decarbonized the auto industry, brought fast internet to everyone on the planet, and helped paralyzed people interact with the world again.

[David Gokhshtein @davidgokhshtein]

People like Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and the entire Democratic Socialist wing love blaming people like Elon Musk for winning in a capitalist system.

That’s the part that drives me crazy.

Elon didn’t wake up with Tesla and SpaceX handed to him. He went all in. He risked everything. He was sleeping on factory floors trying to keep those companies alive when most people would’ve quit.

Now he wins, and the same people who claim America is the land of opportunity want to punish him for actually taking advantage of the opportunity.

They’ll tell you he’s a trillionaire like he has that sitting in a checking account. They know exactly what they’re doing. A lot of that wealth is on paper, tied to the companies he built, the jobs he created, and the risk he took.

But they frame it like he’s hoarding cash under a mattress because it makes people angry.

That’s the game.

These politicians fail the American people, offer no real path forward, then point at Elon and other successful people and tell you they’re the reason your life is hard.

Not the broken system they helped create.

Not the taxes they keep raising.

Not the spending they never control.

Not the fact that they want more people dependent on government instead of helping them become independent.

They don’t want you chasing the American dream.

They want you angry at the people who did.

[Big Luke 🇳🇿 @2ToneBigLuke]

Ahh, yes. You’ve done such a great job with tax payer dollars. The tens of billions wasted on a high speed train could’ve fed and housed every homeless person in California.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Americans are struggling to pay for groceries and gas while Elon Musk becomes a TRILLIONAIRE.

When the federal government is for sale, the rich get richer and everyone else gets shafted.

The system is rigged.

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

Hey Pocahontas, it’s been over a YEAR since I asked you this, and you STILL haven’t told us:

How did you amass a $12 MILLION net worth on a $176,000 salary??!

The math ain’t mathin’!

[Angry Bootneck @AngryBootneck]

Elon bought my house, and pays the mortgages of over 20,000 employees. We collectively pay tens of billions in taxes. He made his own money and works his arse off, he’s not on a yacht, he’s working. Newsom stole his money OFF US. I know who I prefer! 🤷‍♂️

[Big Luke 🇳🇿 @2ToneBigLuke]

Can we please clarify the difference between liquid cash and net worth?
@elonmusk’s net worth is mostly tied up in Tesla and SpaceX stock — shares that only become cash if he sells them. Taxing someone’s net worth (or unrealized gains) doesn’t magically pull money out of thin air. It would force massive stock sales to pay the bill, which would flood the market, tank the share price, and wipe out value for millions of everyday investors, pension funds, and retirement accounts holding the same stock.
Being “worth” a trillion on paper is very different from having a trillion sitting in a bank account. This is basic economics and accounting, but it keeps getting ignored in these debates.

[Big Luke 🇳🇿 @2ToneBigLuke]

@GavinNewsom We need Californias system of taxation where nobody can afford anything and homelessness is out of control.

[Big Luke 🇳🇿 @2ToneBigLuke]

Good for them!!

[Geiger Capital @Geiger_Capital]

Elon Musk just created ~5,000 new millionaires, current and former $SPCX employees.

Of those ~5,000 people, roughly 400 of them will see stakes worth $100+ million.

[Big Luke 🇳🇿 @2ToneBigLuke]

I hope so. He basically has to be going top-5.

[SleeperTitans @SleeperTitanUp]

TRUE or FALSE: Carnell Tate will eventually be in the same category as Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba

It’s remarkable—and frankly frustrating—that families like ours often need to travel overseas to access innovative stem cell therapies. I’m convinced this is the future of medicine: true regenerative solutions that address root causes, rather than relying solely on the artificial treatments we’ve depended on for so long.

[TMZ @TMZ]

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Marjorie Taylor Greene is trying to get ahead of Father Time ... telling TMZ she and fiancé Brian Glenn are in Mexico receiving stem cell treatments aimed at fighting aging and promoting long-term health.
