Mergers & Acquisitions / Politically Pissed Off

[Mason Gates @NetRSF]

At 20 years old, I ran for public office in one of the most affluent communities in the U.S. Here's what came of it:

12,350 votes & 1 official loss.

Yes, I lost. Not quite the inspiring victory story you might have expected. Thankfully, I don't believe in losing—only learning.

So here’s what I learned:
- Problem-solving at its core
- Coordinating strategic efforts
- Building and leading a team
- Engaging in municipal politics
- Grassroots fundraising
- Public speaking

But most importantly, I learned how to serve my community. Throughout the campaign, I connected with thousands of residents from diverse backgrounds, gaining a deeper understanding of the issues that matter most to them.

And honestly, I can't be too disappointed. Over 1,300 people signed my petition to get on the ballot, we raised $20k+ in small-dollar donations, and I ran beholden to no one except the people I sought to represent.

Many have asked me why I chose to run. The truth? My generation is often labeled as one of complaints and inaction. Sometimes, the change you're looking for is staring back at you in the mirror.

Policy is easy. Politics is hard.

Big day for an iconic Arizona company! 🚚

@dbseiden and @uhaul CEO Joe Shoen joined the @BroomheadShow ahead of tonight's grand opening of the company's new headquarters in Midtown Phoenix.

U-Haul has called Phoenix home for nearly 60 years, and its latest investment is a big win for the city and the people who work there.

This morning my @Outlook went down.

It’s been down all day.

I’m befuddled.

Can anyone think of a reason as to why the entire professional workforce was hindered from doing their jobs today?

JD Vance is TORCHING Microsoft for abusing the H1B visa program: "Last year, Microsoft laid off 6,000 American workers. At the same time, the company benefited from 6,300 H1B visas. You cannot lay off American workers and then replace them with foreign indentured servants."

This video is a stark reminder that the biggest threat to US national progress is not some adversary like China or Russia

It is literally people at the bottom decile of the IQ range holding back the other 90% from moving forward

You are only as strong as your weakest link is just as true at the national level, as it is in small teams within startups or organizations

This photo is hilarious and emblematic of the brain dead anti-data center luddites

She’s standing there like “yall, I just did something big for my community” and it’s simply protecting a massive abandoned parking lot from being turned into a huge tax revenue engine for the community

We are being crippled by economically illiterate morons

Palantir CEO Alex Karp:

"If you're anti-war, in my humble opinion, looking at any part of history, you have to have a strong military.

So the idea that you're going to weaken the military and have more peace is a fantasy of people who are half idiots or actually who want war."

You will net 3% IRR, and you will like it

[Short Squeez @shortsqueeznews]

BREAKING: Nearly a third of Blackstone’s real estate senior managing directors have left the firm over the past 3 years.

The key reason is the partners were no longer making as much money as they had in their best years as Blackstone’s real estate funds struggle to earn as much.

While the net IRR of Blackstone real estate funds were 11-14% between 2005 and 2019, they have been around 3% since.

JUST LISTED I 📍 EZ Storage & Carwash - Jerome, ID

Excited to bring to market a unique, multi-income-stream investment opportunity in Jerome, Idaho, located within the growing Twin Falls market.

Offered at $1,200,000, the property combines three distinct revenue-generating components: a self-service car wash, leased retail/car lot space, and self-storage units, providing investors with diversified income streams within a single asset.

With recent capital improvements to the car wash equipment and infrastructure, approximately 15,000 vehicles passing the property daily, and additional upside through the lease-up of vacant storage units and operational efficiencies, this offering presents a compelling value-add opportunity in Southern Idaho.

Well, duh.

Why would a 15-year old need creatine when they can get tasty hormone blockers at the taxpayer’s expense?

[Polymarket @Polymarket]

BREAKING: Gavin Newsom bans sales of certain "muscle-building supplements" to Californians under 18, potentially including whey protein & creatine.

Imagine ID required for creatine but not for voting💀

I know the liberal media has a hard time accepting the truth so they spin it anyway they can, but #Scottsdale voters did what they have always done. They embraced traditional conservative values and rejected the socialist ideology and their scare tactics.

Residents voted for limited government, protection of our desert character, fiscal responsibility, and individualism over a high-density agenda, collectivism, and @axon_enterprise funded PAC money.

Now more than ever, I will champion conservative principles that keep Scottsdale the prosperous, affluent, quiet luxury community it has always been.

[Boring_Business @BoringBiz_]

If you taxed every last dollar from all existing billionaires in the US, we could fund government spending for about fifteen (15) months

If you taxed everyone worth more than $500M, it would last about 18 months. For everyone above $100M, it would last you 3 years

In the process, you would destroy economic value and incentives for generations to come.

This is the simple reason that a wealth tax makes absolutely no sense. We do not have a revenue problem in the government. We have a spending problem.

This is unbelievable: Maricopa Dems put up a 19-year-old ASU student for the Superior Court clerk position and he won. Sebastian Matta will oversee more than 600 employees and a $65 million budget.

He’s known around campus for wearing a suit to class and has a 3.25 GPA.

“I understand they may not take too kindly to a 19-year-old being their boss, but that’s unfortunately the harsh reality of their situation.”
