"We are different from all the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites... One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship." Carry on comrade.
Agreed with all of that. Dont agree with Trudeau and Co when we were called racists for criticizing how they detonated the the long stable, world class and steady immigration program built up for years under Christian and Harper. We simply didnt have the housing, health, jobs or health care to support such a fast influx. Common sense completely lost.
@Adam_Giambrone And then swing back to NA kinship with a democratic Congress in the fall? Swing back to EU if Repulicans Senate? Swing back to EU if Rubio or Vance win in 28? Your logic is brilliant!
@GavinNewsom Had your state not been so insulting, unwelcoming and filled with envy and your own government greed his companies may have stayed. Look in the mirror.
This is WILD!
The most important story coming out of the SpaceX IPO this morning is not the $1.77 trillion valuation but it is about Juan Hernandez (Save this).
Juan is a welder who got a phone call from a friend about a job at a company he had never heard of.
He said yes anyway, showed up, worked there for ten years, rose from the factory floor to supervisor, and held on to 6,500 shares the entire time.
When CBS asked him this morning how much he stands to make at opening, he said approximately $880,000.
Tom Mueller, Musk's very first SpaceX employee, tells a version of the same story.
He met Musk through an amateur rocket club, was convinced to do something exciting, and says it was one of the best decisions he ever made.
In those early days, he says, the team simply believed they were going to change the world and then went ahead and did it.
Juan and Tom are not alone.
SpaceX has approximately 13,000 employees who hold equity and analysts estimate today's IPO will create somewhere between 600 and 1,000 instant millionaires across the workforce from engineers and software developers to machinists, welders, and operations staff.
The engineers and executives at the top of the stack are looking at life changing numbers of a different order entirely.
Senior vice presidents and long tenured rocket engineers with large equity grants are expected to walk away with $10 million to $50 million or more depending on their vesting history.
Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX's President and COO who has been building this company alongside Musk for over two decades, is expected to become a billionaire on her equity stake alone.
All of that wealth from Juan's $880,000 to Musk's trillion came from the same source.
A group of people who believed that if nobody built a truly reusable rocket, humanity would never leave Earth, and decided that was an unacceptable outcome.
Thank you, @elonmusk for building a company where a welder who didn't know your name in 2016 is worth nearly a million dollars this morning.
So as a trillionairre I should place a maximum amount of hate towards him. Got it. Question: What level of hate should I ascribe to your owner who is approaching $100,000,000 in wealth? Is that a medium amount of hate or is $100B only worthy of a modest dislike. I so greatly appreciate your most valuable insight.
🚨 WOW! Dr. ALVEDA KING just said it PERFECTLY on Capitol Hill
"I still have a dream. I dream that one day we will move beyond black power and white power and embrace GOD'S power and human dignity!"
"I reject the notion that Americans who hold traditional Christian beliefs should be treated as THREATS or TERRORISTS simply because we disagree with a prevailing political thought!" 🙏🏻
"I dream that Americans will one day see each other, not as enemies, but as neighbors. I dream that we will hear each other, see each other, and recognize that every human life has value from the womb to the tomb and beyond."
"We are as scripture teaches, one blood, one human race. And if we remember that truth, we can build a future worthy of the sacrifices made by those who came before us."
"We must speak out for truth and against the forces that would manufacture hate, fear, division, and violence simply to line their pockets and further their political ambitions."
"God bless America, God bless you!"

@Lancster_@AlienMoonLizard@sarobertson_ https://t.co/rEZDg6k7D9 Today and nearly every day. These are not isolated. It is intentional harassment and many, including apparently you, simply turn a blind and accept this as the new Canada. Not me.
