I think possibly the best thing about Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire is how angry it makes a bunch of losers who've never built a thing in their lives.
Two years ago, I was in China. I went to an ATM to withdraw money and I didn't succeed in getting it out because the message on the screen was in Chinese. So I managed to get my visa card out and left. Then a Chinese lady went to the ATM to withdraw money. In less than a minute she was shouting and then I looked back. I saw her holding money and running after me. It was my money I had left at the ATM. I got it from her and she couldn't even accept a thank you in terms of money.
Now you know why our country's values have died. A pastor to tell his congregation that stealing is fine because I found the money in the garden like he had kept it there. This kind of behavior runs through our society.
It's common to find a CEO spending time planning on how to steal ugx 50,000 petty cash per day. Then you wonder when do such people engage in strategic thinking and planning if most of their time is spent on planning on stealing small change.
With this mentality we shall remain backward as a country and a continent.
.@BernieSanders , it is a time to celebrate. @elonmusk has created enormous value for society by building @SpaceX, driving down the cost of rocket launches and creating a global satellite communication network that has brought high speed, low-cost internet and communication access to hundreds of millions and eventually billions of people along with critical advantages for our military and our nation’s defense.
SpaceX and its technologies will cause an acceleration in the growth of wages and wealth creation globally, including in some of the poorest communities in the U.S. and around the world.
Access to low-cost, high speed communications everywhere will allow children around the world to be educated, families to build businesses, and life-saving medical knowledge and care to be available everywhere.
SpaceX will materially bring down the cost of compute, advancing AI and humanity.
Meanwhile, 4,000 SpaceX employees yesterday became millionaires, including hourly wage employees who you claim you are trying to help.
The Elon Musks of the world drive growth, global GDP, and provide access to goods and services at lower cost that would otherwise not exist.
Elon’s nominal trillionaire status is due to his ownership of SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, the Boring Company and his other initiatives that have brought new technologies that improve our everyday lives.
Elon is not sitting on a trillion dollar pile of cash, jewelry and gold. He is using his controlling stakes in his companies to advance mankind. Elon’s companies don’t pay dividends. They reinvest all of their capital to accelerate innovation and value creation.
Elon is working 24/7 for all of us. He deserves respect and appreciation, not smears.
Bernie, your socialism would never allow a SpaceX to be built. Socialism has only proven to impoverish mankind and lead to death and destruction.
We need to create the conditions for more SpaceXs to be built, not attack the great entrepreneurs who are helping to advance our country.
Yesterday’s refereeing was one of the best I’ve seen in a long time.
For the first 15 minutes, the ref fell for Arsenal’s shenanigans: blowing a foul for every slight fall and every little touch. Then, all of a sudden, he clocked their dirty antics and took complete control of the game.
He stopped buying their silly theatrics: Mosquera time wasting, Havertz falling at every slight touch, Saka wasting time for the corner, Arteta touchline tantrums, Madueke diving. I can go on and on
Arsenal have become so used to getting away with this cunning stuff from Premier League refs that they seemed genuinely shocked when it didn’t work.
I’m glad the referee refused to be intimidated and stood his ground. That’s how you referee a final.
You might con your way to a Premier League title, but you can’t do it in the UCL. Either you play like real men or go home
As Chairman of PLU, I want to sincerely apologize to H.E. the President for the embarassing, uncharacteristic and wrong words one of our members, Andrew Mwenda, used against you. We are going to subject our member to a disciplinary process. The NRM/PLU alliance is strong.
@mkainerugaba After this Operation, I will retire from active politics to pave the way for others to serve. Public offices demand safety, respect and accountability. I can no longer serve under death threats and blackmail. I did not tell anyone to steal government resources.
Fortunately, I can call many of Gen. Muhoozi’s people my friends; @AndrewMwenda@kasujja@qataharraymond, etc, all very brilliant people. could you please be honest enough to tell him he cannot fight corruption while abusing processes, while undermining institutions, while openly and publicly appointing speakers and deputy speakers of parliament, while fronting people that have also been involved in the same corruption you’re praising him for fighting. Thank you 🙏
You can see why Budonians, Gayaza girls, and other such avoid elective politics.
Politics requires a certain degree of personality disorder, psychopathy, or mental illness.
You must have an empty, restless soul and lack any sense of shame, awkwardness, or introspection.
Manchester United fans want to eat their cake and have it
They want a rebuild at the same time want to contest for the league.
They want a pattern of play at the same time want to play DNA football.
They want discipline in the dressing room at the same time want their favorite players on the pitch.
They want to achieve like every current big team but still held down by nostalgia.
The earlier we let go of the past, the earlier we catch up with every other club doing well.

Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu. Habaari. Greetings to all of you.
Of recent, I have noticed a lot of orwaari (noise, kelele), regarding the Sovereignty Bill. Which Sovereignty Bill is the rwaari about? The one I initiated in the Cabinet or another one? The Bill will stop FDIs (Foreign Direct Investments), support for religious bodies from abroad, Remittances from Ugandans working abroad, etc., etc. Really!! That is not the Bill I initiated.
Below is clarification on what I initiated.
Justo hoy, Netanyahu lanza su ataque más duro contra el Líbano desde que empezó la ofensiva.
Su desprecio por la vida y el derecho internacional es intolerable.
Toca hablar claro:
- Líbano debe formar parte del alto al fuego.
- La comunidad internacional debe condenar esta nueva violación del derecho internacional.
- La Unión Europea debe suspender su Acuerdo de Asociación con Israel.
- Y no debe haber impunidad ante estos actos criminales.
