Elon Musk is now a trillionaire. More specifically, his net worth is $1.2 trillion or $1200 billion. That number doesn’t even compute for most of us, so here is some helpful context:
The USDA needs $18.8 billion to feed every child in the US school system breakfast and lunch each day. Elon could pay for that 64x and still have money leftover.
The World Food Program needs $13 billion to feed the 110 million hungriest people on earth. Elon could pay for that 92x and still have money leftover.
The National Alliance to End Homelessness needs $9.6 billion to provide housing for every unhoused person in the United States. Elon could pay for that 125x and still have money leftover.
The average American teacher makes $74,495 per year. Elon could pay the annual salary of over 16 million teachers and still have money leftover.
The problem is not that we don’t have enough money. The problem is that we have built a world where one person can accumulate more wealth than the GDP of 180 countries while children go hungry, families drown in medical debt, teachers are forced to buy school supplies for their students, and people sleep on the streets.
This is a complete moral failure.
Taylor Swift’s new song ‘I Knew It, I Knew You’ for ‘Toy Story 5’ will mark a return to her country roots.
The song was written and produced by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff.
I really don’t care about the UFO files.
I just don’t.
I’m so sick of the “look at the shiny object” propaganda while they wage foreign wars, let rapist and pedophiles run free, and ruin the value of our dollar.
Unless they roll out live aliens and test demo UFOs or actually admit what we know this really is then I have way better things to do on this Friday.
Franklin Graham making excuses for Trump posting himself as Jesus is one of the worst things I’ve seen.
Trump posted his blasphemous picture with Satan added above him, the original picture had a soldier.
If you search “pictures of Jesus” most of them show Jesus in white with a red robe over his shoulders.
Franklin Graham of all people, who is frequently at the WH and with Trump, should be leading Trump to be a Christian, NOT telling other Christians that Trump did nothing wrong when he committed blasphemy.
Trump knows what he is doing. He knows what he posted. He knows how to manipulate his followers. And he’s not sorry, he never apologized.
Instead he lied, and said he was a doctor, which is also absurd.
Jesus warned about this in Matthew 7: 15-20
“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.”
Pay attention to ACTIONS, not words that tell you what you want to hear.
There is no loyalty here, my friends, only convenience.
I remember clearly how Donald Trump turned on @elonmusk after everything he contributed simply for choosing to stand on what he believed was right.
So let’s be honest about the pattern:
Support is welcomed. Loyalty is demanded. But the moment independence appears, it is punished.
Thank you, Mr. President, for demonstrating what that kind of loyalty looks like.
Because it isn’t loyalty at all.
It’s conditional allegiance, granted only so long as it serves you.
This is not an easy video to post.
I was let go from Turning Point USA, and while I’m grateful for the opportunities I had, I can’t ignore what I witnessed. Especially how employees are treated and the direction the organization is moving in.
I’m not here to be bitter. I’m here to be honest. This video is the beginning of me telling the truth, as much as I legally can.
I’m speaking up because I know I’m not the only one who’s felt this way and our First Amendment right matters, too.
