My favorite @elonmusk quote that I often send friends:

Do not fear losing. “You will lose,” Musk says. “It will hurt the first fifty times. When you get used to losing, you will play each game with less emotion.” You will be more fearless, take more risks.

California has the nation's costliest gas and electricity. Yet it's also among the worst states environmentally. Tankers bringing oil from across the world are massive polluters. So are wildfires.

Yet again, failed policies mean we sacrifice the most and get the least in return.

GOOD NEWS 🚨 Barclays analyst Dan Levy has issued a rather bullish update regarding Tesla's immediate sales performance 🔥

Levy raised his Q2 2026 delivery estimate to roughly 418,000 vehicles, well above the broader Wall Street consensus of around 397,000 👍

He attributes this expected beat to:
- European momentum: Sales in April and May tracked more than 50% higher than the January-February pace, setting up Europe for its best quarter since 2023.
- Chinese recovery: The Chinese EV market is rebounding from a weak Q1, with Tesla's retail sales in China up 23% year-over-year in May.

In short, Barclays sees Tesla selling cars very efficiently right now, so the firm reiterated a Hold rating on Tesla with a price target of $360 😳

Every one of these cases of alleged child trafficking is the direct responsibility of Xavier Becerra.

His deliberate and politically driven negligence makes him unfit to hold any public office, let alone governor of California.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk speaks from Starbase as SpaceX goes public, with the largest IPO EVER

"If people had told me this was going to happen [years ago], I would be like, man, you must be smoking some REALLY good crack because I think this company is going to fail!" 🤣

"I gave SpaceX less than a 10% chance of succeeding at all, to be clear. In fact, I told people this: I said, 'look, we're probably going to fail, but, you know, we should give it a try because if we don't, if if there's not a new company that enters space, we will never be a truly spacefaring civilization.'" 💯

This needs to be said loud and clear.

Israel is not attacking Lebanon. They are targeting Hezbollah. An Iranian funded terror proxy that has struck Israel 2,000 times since the April ceasefire.

Israel has every right to defend itself. Don’t fall for the Iranian regime’s distraction.

Primary Takeaways:

1. We were the most efficient campaign: Becerra spent 4 TIMES the money per vote. Steyer spent 67 times more! Shows that as governor I will be CAREFUL with your money.

2. Becerra campaign funded by “dark money,” corporate interests and super PACs.

3. We’ve amassed an army of over 80,000 individual donors, averaging around $70 per donation. Our campaign is truly GRASSROOTS!

We have real momentum heading into the general election. Change is Coming! ☀️

ZELENSKYY: I don’t want to agree or disagree with Trump, because he has his own relationship with Putin. But I’ve always told him that he can’t trust Putin or his inner circle, that Putin is playing games with him. God bless, American society remains strong supporter of Ukraine.

If we don’t change direction, California is headed for an economic disaster.

Xavier Becerra is part of the broken system that has been sinking California for 16 years—just more of the same.

We can turn our state around, but we need CHANGE. ☀️

We continue to apply Ukrainian long-range sanctions against Russian military facilities and the oil industry. In particular, last night Ukrainian FP-5 Flamingos struck a military plant in Cheboksary that supplies the occupier’s army with components for drones and missiles. I thank the Armed Forces of Ukraine for their precision! The Kuibyshev oil refinery in the Samara region was also hit last night. The distance from the frontline is more than 900 kilometers. I am grateful to the warriors of the Special Operations Forces, the Unmanned Systems Forces, and the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine. The entirely just responses of the Security Service of Ukraine also reached two oil infrastructure facilities in the Vladimir region, at a distance of 700 kilometers. I thank everyone who fights and works for Ukraine!

The Iranian regime will lose the zero-sum game it is playing.

Any damage it inflicts on our allies in the Gulf will be paid for with funds extracted from Iranian Accounts.

Any tolls paid to the Persian Gulf Strait Authority will be offset by funds extracted from their accounts.

Every attack Iran launches will only deepen the economic and financial consequences it faces.

Voters are sending a clear signal: they want a “Big Beautiful Bill Part Deux."

By 2–1, voters back a second reconciliation bill that cuts taxes, cuts waste, and adds voter ID safeguards.

What are Republicans waiting for?

Elon Musk says that "George Soros is like a system hacker."https://t.co/CJ3oFHudkD

"He is a genius at arbitrage."

"He figured out you could leverage a small amount of money to create a non-profit, then lobby politicians to send a ton of money to that non-profit so you can take what might be a $10 M donation… and leverage that into a $1 B NGO."

.@SecretaryTurner on the Trump admin's push to cut costly regulation at the city level in homebuilding: "The median price of a home in America's about $426,000. $100,000 of that is in regulations and regulatory environment. If you take that away, it brings down the cost of a house so more Americans can afford to buy."

Elon Musk: “There is an over allocation of talent in finance and law. Too many smart people go into finance and law. We should have fewer people doing law and finance and more people making stuff.”
