BREAKING: MAGA Republican ringleader Steve Bannon just completely unloaded on Elon Musk last night on Timcast IRL.

Bannon says that Elon Musk is "owned by the Chinese Communist Party." Elon Musk then responded, saying "I used to think Bannon was smart & evil, but now I realize I was wrong about the first part."

I'm just here for the show.

SVB bagholders: now is the time to support SVB. They remain an incredibly influential lender to startups.

Average person: what tf is a SVB?

[Rudy Havenstein, Senior Markets Commentator. @RudyHavenstein]

Over half of US mortgages originated in 2020 or later.

The Fed - which held $0 of MBS in 2008 - held almost $1.4 Trillion in March 2020, then DOUBLED their MBS holdings by April 2022.

This was a criminal distortion of the housing market.

The @federalreserve STILL holds $2.6T.

So Supervisor Ronen is effectively saying that SF should continue to harbor drug dealers under sanctuary policy because life was unfair to them, and put them in that situation? Reap what you sow, SF.

[KTVU @KTVU]

Political leaders are debating the future of San Francisco's sanctuary city policies. Supervisors are debating reaffirming the commitment to sanctuary city while one supervisor is asking to carve out dangerous drug dealers. https://t.co/6zaVIWhI9h

Biden: I’m going to do what’s called a pro gamer move.

[Jason Kander @JasonKander]

This was such an epic self-own by the Republicans combined with a quick-thinking move by Biden. I mean they just walked right into it. https://t.co/Ljc4R7Zx7A

Are we still in the Cold War where spy balloons are an imminent threat. Are Republicans ignorantly forgetting global superpowers have satellites with high-res imaging capabilities?

“Farley said these and other cost problems meant that Ford ‘left about $2 billion of profit on the table.’”

Who knew building EVs would be hard? I guess the constant Tesla critics knew, right. 🤡

Working on global teams is a great reminder of perspective.

Me, in California: it’s so cold outside, 34 F today.
Team member, Kansas City: it’s 2 F outside right now.
Team member, Toronto: it’s -12 F out here. I think I did that conversion right.

@Jim_Jordan There has not even been a single piece of legislation put forth to require replacement of gas stoves. Is the GOP that afraid of a study report?

@UTLAUncensored The City of Los Angeles owns and operates LAX. Your grievances should be directed at LA.
