I like the view from up here, on my high horse.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

Elon Musk held up a chainsaw, fed USAID into the wood chipper, and at least 600,00 people have already died as a result - two-thirds of them children.

History's first trillionaire.

I am most embarrassed by Mark Zuckerberg as a millennial. As an Indian? 💯 Kash Patel. This dude is So. So. Embarrassing.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than:

Tesla
Southwest
Disney
Live Nation
HP
United
PayPal
CVS Health
Palantir
Citigroup
PG&E
3M

That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax.

It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Trump lied to the American people last night when he said he would protect Medicare.

Here’s the truth: Republican’s Big Ugly Bill slashed 12 years of Medicare benefits for seniors.

Every major AI company is racing frantically to pump out new, more human-like models and then boast about their awesome capabilities. Every advancement or boast likely causes an equal and opposite reaction from voters. They get more anxious. https://t.co/OgWREPx0af

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

The financial markets’ dramatic reaction to Donald Trump’s coercive policies have raised new questions about U.S. economic leadership and the dollar’s long-standing status as the dominant global currency. https://t.co/PL3CO9wp93

[Jennifer Bendery @jbendery]

The Congressional Progressive Caucus, a group of nearly 100 House Democrats, will announce later today that it's formally endorsing legislation to strip $175 billion from ICE and put it toward affordable housing. https://t.co/Q6H5Herqz4

Most Americans don’t approve of what ICE is doing or support Donald Trump’s expansionism. “But this is the first time in recent memory in which the will of the majority feels both irrelevant and totally impotent,” Jay Caspian Kang writes. https://t.co/QN8t8mbegz

@TheDemocrats @harrisonjaime Here we go again…. The only time Dems care about activating the disenfranchised is during election cycles. I bet they’re targeting young voters because the rest of us (minorities, women, parents, working class) already know. “When We Count”? More like, “Vote, Then STFU”.

[John Avlon @JohnAvlon]

"Wall Street keeps dancing while the impartial rule of law in America burns. We are well into the danger zone that self-styled constitutional conservatives warned about for decades in screeds about crony capitalism — but because the actions come from a Republican president who rules by fear and greed, most of them are silent."

This stat is also one (of many) reasons why Spirit is failing, Frontier is struggling, Southwest is reinventing itself on the fly, etc etc.

The economy has split in two. Airlines that are catering to wealthier Americans are succeeding.

The rest, not so much.

Everyone’s on their best behavior in January.

@axios Well, this was a waste of time… What you’ll learn: one time, a company you’ve heard of released AI-generated content without editorial checks; many typos and misspellings. AND THUS, AI is too complex—you’re probs not ready.

Cell phones are the new cigarettes.

.@abigaildisney: G20 leaders need to start taxing wealthy people like me https://t.co/yyTZZE5rkm

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Health care prices are going to rise for millions of Americans. Trump and the GOP must stop putting profits over people and join Democrats to lower costs for Americans.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

I warned that private equity taking over Walgreens would be bad for workers.

This is the private equity playbook: they hollow out businesses, cheat their workers, and drive them into the ground.

Red Lobster, Toys "R" Us, and Joann Fabrics. Who’s next?

[NowThis Impact @nowthisimpact]

Students in Charlotte, NC, are protesting ICE’s presence in their city — 30,000 students skipped school on Monday, and hundreds of high schoolers walked out on Tuesday.
